Collection Historical Note
The Richmond Area Arts Council was founded in an effort to provide the citizens of Richmond more access to the arts. The first meeting of what would later become the council took place in November 1988 at Daniel Boone School. In 1989, The Richmond Arts Council became a non-profit organization, established the first board and officers, and began putting on programs and events for the community. In the fall of 1990, the Richmond Area Arts Council purchased a building on Lancaster Ave. at Water St. They named the facility the Richmond Area Arts Center. The Richmond Area Arts Council continues to present concerts, programs, and events for the community.
