"The mission of ACAC is to foster the development and enjoyment of performing, visual, cultural, and other arts in the Athens-Clarke County community," reads their announcement. They also contribute recommendations to local planning efforts.

The commission holds meetings monthly on the second Monday at 6:00 PM. In addition to these meetings, committee work occurs throughout the month. Applicants must reside in Athens-Clarke County and have expertise or interest in areas such as arts, public administration, community engagement, outreach, grant writing, or arts education and advocacy.
