Work collaboratively with existing organizations such as the Santiam Historical Society, The Santiam Performing Arts Restoration Committee (S.P.A.R.C.), local schools, and others to establish programs to fulfill our corporate mission. Create an environment of success for local creative talents including but not limited to those in fields of visual art, music, literature, creative movement, and electronic media.
