Welcome to the Community Arts Partnership
(CAP), the arts council for Tompkins County.
CAP was founded in 1990 in response to a community-wide desire to
strengthen and develop the County's arts and cultural community. Many
sectors came together to engage in a community cultural assessment
that would describe how a new arts council would assist and support
the arts. After an exhaustive, inclusive 18-month study, CAP was launched
as a not-for-profit agency that would serve the public by providing
services to the arts in the County.
CAP receives annual programming and operational support from
the New York State Council on
the Arts and from the Tompkins
County Tourism Program. |
