MISSION

Chesterfield
Arts is a non-profit community arts agency, founded
in 1995 with the aim of stimulating the arts within City of
Chesterfield and the West County region. Chesterfield Arts works to foster the growth of the
visual, performing and literary arts in the Chesterfield area
by acting as a presenter of quality artists from around the region
and as a catalyst for arts activity. We encourage community involvement
in the arts and serve as a local resource for arts information. Chesterfield Arts presents a diverse mix of performing arts programs in music, dance and theater at various venues within the community.
The Gallery The Gallery at Chesterfield Arts exhibits quality artwork by professional artists from the region and presents an annual exhibit showcasing student artwork. New exhibits are featured every eight weeks giving the community the opportunity to experience the diversity of talent from the St. Louis Region. Arts Education Chesterfield Arts offers art classes for both children and adults, in a variety of media and at every skill level, taught by professional local artists. In addition, CA partners with COCA, Craft Alliance, Saint Louis Art Museum and others on educational programming. Public Art Chesterfield Arts has been working diligently over the years to develop Chesterfield as a "city of art." Since 1997, we have coordinated the acquisition and placement of over 15 world-class sculptures. This showcase of public art includes the work of George Rickey, Ernest Trova, William King, and Emilio Greco. Businesses throughout Chesterfield have joined our efforts to support and present artwork in their lobbies and on their grounds. Resource Chesterfield Arts is an important resource to our community. Through the development of a regional arts consortium, Chesterfield Arts acts as a facilitator, offering a calendar of art events ad partnership opportunities to businesses, area arts organizations, artists and performing groups from the St. Louis region. In
2000, Chesterfield Arts convened the Arts Roundtable
of Chesterfield, an informal group representing arts and heritage
organizations and artists in this area. This group produces a bi-annual
publication, Calendar of the Arts, which
circulates in the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce magazine "Out
& About" and through various community venues.
