The "GO ARTS" project will bring one day visual and performing art events to the rural communities of East Texas. This will be a hands on experience in art creation, with hopes of inspiring community members to join in by sharing their creative knowledge and expertise. Depending on the interest of each community these one day events may develop into ongoing classes, exhibition space, and art centers.
   GO ARTS will sponsor visiting artists for demonstrations, classes, exhibitions, performances, and workshops. Communities will be able to choose from a list of experiences lead by professional artists and members of their own community.
       This grass roots approach will allow for individual development in each community with everyone benefiting from the network of artists and art organizations in the East Texas Rural Arts Council.
