A Creative District is a way to identify, promote and grow the creative people, products, and places of an area.
The Arts and Humanities Council is collaborating with the Idaho Commission on the Arts, the City of McCall, and other organizations to help pioneer the first creative district in Idaho.

We are only able to do what we do through the generosity of our community. Even $5 a month makes a costume, script, book, or stash of supplies.
If you'd like to help but can't support us financially, talk to us about volunteering or tell your friends and family about the fun, creative things we're doing.
