The Arts and Culture Leadership Alliance of Central New York (ACLA) is a consortium for executive leaders of non-profit arts and culture agencies. These leaders meet each month to address current regional issues that involve the arts in economic development, social justice, community building, education, and arts advocacy.
ACLA is a powerful force and efficient ally for community agents.
ACLA maintains quarterly meetings with the Mayor of Syracuse and frequent planning and information-sharing sessions with city, county, and state leaders.
ACLA provides rich, collective value in wisdom, shared resources, and history for our region.
