Mission Statement
50 years of CRESTON ARTS
Creston Arts, a 501(c)3 non-profit, has been serving Creston and surrounding communities since 1976. In 2011, a new group of volunteers took the reigns and established Union County's first art gallery and developed programs for individuals of all ages and abilities.
