The Arts & Cultural Foundation of Antioch has a great deal to be grateful for as we begin the New Year.

  • The City of Antioch continues to support ACFA and the Lynn House Gallery, despite tough economic times.

  • The free Saturday Summer Concert series for 2012 has once again been fully funded by a grant from the Lesher Foundation (every Saturday in July & August / downtown Antioch).

  • Our talented artist participation continues to grow, bringing new artists into the Lynn House Gallery and special events, such as the Celebration of Art at the Antioch Historical society.

  • The Arts4Schools program has been funded by Union Pacific and a Calpine grant, administrated by CCC Supervisor Federal Glover.

  • Our nonprofit partnerships have increased, providing fiscal sponsorship for worthy efforts such as the 4th of July Event/Fireworks effort and the Antioch Police Department grant for a new police canine funded by Pittsburg Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger Foundation.

  • The Rivertown Preservation Society has joined our website providing information on their goal to preserve, protect, and beautify the historic downtown neighborhood known as Rivertown. 

For these things, and you, our valued patrons, the ACFA board of directors and staff wishes you a very happy and prosperous 2012.
