The Tiverton Arts Council (TAC) is a town committee that was formed in 2000 as mandated in the town charter. The Arts Council strives to build community through the arts, thus enhancing the quality of life and contributing to economic development in Tiverton. Each member of the Arts Council serves for a minimum of 2 years, following his/her appointment by the Town Council. The Arts Council advises the Town Council about developments related to the arts that affect the town, including legislation, zoning and the availability of grants to support the arts. The Arts Council is responsible for exhibitions of work by regional artists in Tiverton’s town hall. The Arts Council provided the impetus for formation of the non-profit Friends of Arts in Tiverton and for creation of educational programs geared to both children and adults in Tiverton. Its current concerns are adoption of zoning for arts districts in Tiverton and support of an artists’ colony that would expand affordable housing in Tiverton while creating studio and gallery space.
