Our Mission
Missouri Citizens for the Arts is a non-partisan, state-wide, grass roots organization that advocates to secure stable financial support for the arts to benefit Missouri and its citizens.
We keep up with arts issues nationwide…
Consider joining Americans for the Arts as a way to bolster your efforts as an arts advocate in Missouri and nationwide. Americans for the Arts works on the federal level to secure funding for the National Endowment for the Arts, which directly benefits our state. And Americans for the Arts regularly undertakes important policy research that helps us make the case about the economic impact of the arts industry in Missouri and across the nation.

Citizens’ Day at the Legislature
Once again, MCA’s signature annual event, Citizens’ for the Arts Day at the Legislature, was a success. Thanks to arts advocates who traveled from all over the state to Jefferson City on February 6, 2019, Missouri legislators know that the arts matter in our state. We delivered informational packets, held meetings, and shared testimony about how Missouri’s arts industry is improving the lives of residents and providing interest to visitors. We’ll meet again in Jefferson City on Wednesday, February 5, 2020. Calendar it! Learn more!
