River Oak Arts Center

The Center provides services which would otherwise not be available in the area/region. With a multitude of programs, River Oaks is considered  a cultural hub for CENLA. Expansion of programs is crucial to success. The Center's major accomplishment is providing a platform for working artists and offering educational opportunities as an extension to their talent. This dynamic is incomparable to any other organization in our area. Providing a creative environment and compensating working artists for their talent is what we take pride in. Creating an awareness and appreciation of these artists is what we strive to expand. Over the past several years, numerous projects have had a systemic element. Impact can be measured by attendance in classes, receptions and audience response to numerous fundraisers/special events. Due in part to these strategic activities, we have witnessed an increase in audience participation, thus, reiterating the success and impact of our programming, our organization and the arts.
