The Arts Council of White Lake - Nuveen (ACWL-Nuveen) offers accessible arts programming for all ages - and we are able to meet the costs of operating a non-profit thanks to you and your support. A group of generous donors are matching every dollar given until we reach our campaign goal. Double your impact by making a contribution today! Some of the essential community-enriching benefits ACWL-Nuveen provides include:

✨💖✨ ARTS EDUCATION

Students engaged in arts learning have higher GPAs and standardized test scores; they're also more likely to attend college and less likely to drop out. And creativity is among the top five applied skills sought by business leaders. When you support ACWL-Nuveen, you're supporting a dynamic education for your entire community.

✨💖✨ ECONOMIC IMPACT

What makes a place special is more than just one shop, one brewery, one landmark. It's the way businesses and non-profits work together to offer their patrons an exceptional experience. ACWL-Nuveen is proud to be a retail space for over 35 regional artists (a.k.a. small businesses) and to offer cultural opportunities for residents and visitors–like concerts, exhibits, and classes. We've partnered on events with Montague Foods, Fetch Brewing, Greenridge Realty, Hanson Hill, North Grove Brewers, The Playhouse at White Lake, Montague Tree Farms, White Lake Community Library, and many, many more. When you support ACWL-Nuveen, you're supporting the network of people and businesses that make a local economy possible.

✨💖✨ WELL-BEING

Mental health and physical health are inseparable from one another, which is why so many healthcare institutions provide arts programming for patients. Making artwork can lower cortisol levels, reduce cognitive impairment, and help people cope with mental and emotional distress. And the negative effects of social isolation can be reduced by engaging with art classes, open studio, exhibits, concerts, and more. When you support ACWL-Nuveen, you're supporting the well-being of those around you.

✨💖✨ COMMUNITY

It’s the concert you attend with your family, the class you take with your neighbor, the exhibit you enjoy with your friends. These events aren't only about the artwork at the center of them, they're about the people with whom you share it. When you support ACWL-Nuveen, you're supporting your community.

A big thank you to Sarajane Fellini, Tamara Horne, Cari Rasor, LuAnn Hulce, Sue Wink, and Aili Casano for making the above artwork that will be featured during the campaign.
