About Us

The Alexandria Lakes Area Arts Collaborative exists to celebrate, support, and connect the diverse arts organizations that enrich our region. Serving as a shared voice for theatre, music, and visual arts, the Collaborative highlights the many ways creativity brings people together and enhances quality of life for residents and visitors alike.

​

Our member organizations offer a wide range of artistic experiences—from live performances and exhibitions to hands-on opportunities for artists of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re an experienced professional, an enthusiastic amateur, or a curious audience member, the arts in the Alexandria Lakes Area offer meaningful ways to engage, learn, and be inspired.

​

The Collaborative also encourages community involvement beyond the stage and studio. Volunteers play a vital role by ushering, assisting at events, serving on boards and committees, and supporting fundraising efforts that help sustain a vibrant arts ecosystem.

​

Together, our arts organizations foster community pride, attract visitors, retain a strong local workforce, and generate economic impact that supports community infrastructure. This website is sponsored as a service to help residents and visitors explore the organizations of the Arts Collaborative—and to embrace the creativity, connection, and culture that define life in the Alexandria Lakes Area.
