Welcome to the Allied Arts Council 2017/2018 Arts Directory!
How to use the directory There are two ways to search the directory
Index:
If you are looking for artists or organizations in a specific category, see pages 2-5 for an index of disciplines and their corresponding artists and organizations.
Alphabetically:
If you are looking for a specific name, the directory is organized alphabetically; just flip through until you find the correct letter. Artists are listed by their last names first. You’ll also notice symbols next to each artist/organization. These indicate which discipline(s) applies to that artist/organization. A legend is available at the bottom of each page.
