Cattaraugus County Arts Council

Welcome! Cattaraugus County Arts Council (CCAC) is a non-profit community resource dedicated to keeping art alive in the Cattaraugus County region. We do this by promoting the creation, presentation, and appreciation of the arts, by making cultural opportunities available through our services surrounding the artistic side of life. 

We’ve evolved to be a major resource, offering arts programming to the people of our community. These include art classes and workshops in our Community Art and Pottery Studio, ranging from watercolor and pottery to interior design and ethic cooking. We host benefits and events, offer support for artists and arts organizations, and much more that you can learn about by exploring our web site.

Routes to Art

Our next large event in the region is Routes to Art, a regional open studio art tour managed by CCAC. During the weekend of May 17-18 2008, more than 30 artists in Cattaraugus County and Northern Pennsylvania will open their studio doors for Routes to Art. Designed to showcase a wealth of regional artistic talent -- painters, photographers, sculptors, fiber artists, handcrafted jewelers, and potters -- visitors will drive over the hill and dale and through quaint villages and towns to visit and purchase art.
