Who is TAP (Tuscarawas Arts Partnership)?

TAP is a 501c3 nonprofit arts council that supports and promotes the arts within Tuscarawas County. TAP's main objectives are to promote artistic activities, stimulate cultural growth, and ensure that the arts are accessible to the public by focusing on the three pillars of an arts council: advocacy, education, and funding.

Let’s paint a picture - what does a thriving culture for Tuscarawas County look like? It is a community that embraces all aspects of a positive quality of life - for its people to live, work, and play.

It is an environment that supports and elevates the social and economic well-being of a community through local arts and emphasizes the community’s artistic, cultural, and creative values. It is cultivating a part of our creative humanity that revolves around inclusivity, diversity, and pride of place.

Our focus is:

To understand and respond to the needs of the arts, culture, and creative community
To build relationships and drive economic development with community partners and local businesses
To collaborate and implement strategies and necessary work for arts programming
To fund and support arts, culture, and creativity across Tuscarawas County.
