Established in 2006 in part by a gift from the Addison Family, Bell Arts Factory is a non-profit, community-based organization that utilizes the arts as a means to deliver messages and encourage acts of greater good within our community.
The mural on our building commemorates a quote from Mahatma Gandhi, “Be the change you wish to see in the world”.
To introduce, promote and benefit the arts as a vital element of community life. To accomplish this mission, the following goals will be pursued:
To provide opportunities and facilities for the creation and presentation of works of art;
