April is Arts, Culture & Creativity Month in California
Arts, Culture, and Creativity Month is a month-long, statewide effort organized by Californians for the Arts.
In 2019, Californians for the Arts (CFTA) successfully campaigned for the state to recognize and celebrate the arts by declaring April as Arts, Culture & Creativity Month (ACCM) through a concurrent resolution passed in the California Senate. In 2021, an additional resolution was declared to recognize artists as second responders.
CFTA directs this annual month-long spotlight on the arts to raise visibility and awareness about the value of the arts sector, to empower arts advocates to take action, and to spur greater investments in the arts industry and workforce.
Our Goals
- Set the expectation that Fremont Creates is an annual April event throughout the City of Fremont, California.
- Provide an opportunity for the Community to explore the artistic culture in Fremont and for local artists to showcase their talents to the Community.
- Bring local artists together for a shared artistic experience, to exchange ideas and feature their expertise.
- Engage businesses and community partners to show their support for the arts as a necessary part of a vibrant and inclusive community.
Marketing Materials
We have created marketing materials which any hosting organizations are free to use in their own marketing (websites, social media, posters, etc.)
The Team
Fremont Creates is organized and led by a Steering Committee, and there are numerous opportunities to participate and volunteer during the year. If you’re interested in joining the organizing team, please contact us.
