FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION

“To provide studios for artists of all types to work on their craft and to give them tools and resources for them to become self-sufficient. Foster a collaborative and supportive artist community. Advance the arts in north texas.”

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

“Programming at the cedars union stands to advance the practice of cu member artists as well as the whole visual arts community. The cu's programs encompasses a range of offerings including lectures and discussions, workshops on equipment and artistic skills, training on legal and business skills, and meet-ups designed to connect creatives with one another. As these established program styles continue, we are working to expand our network and partnerships in order to broaden our reach and program content. This includes partnerships with local universities, giving graduate students and professors more opportunity to publicly present their research and hone skills important to their future scholarship while introducing a deeper understanding of contemporary art and history to our audiences. Additionally, we are working with law firms and creative business professionals to develop an "open office" program, providing space for creatives to have one-on-one guidance to assist with a range of topics such as non-profit formation. In 2018 alone, we collectively served more than 250 artists and creatives in the area with memberships, public programs, and events.”
