CSPS

Arts presenting: in its role in introducing audiences to new art experiences by providing a global Arts platform, Legion Arts this past year presented an estimated 15 art exhibits and an estimated 75 performing Arts events. These presentations featured established and emerging artists from across the united states and more than a dozen other countries.

Artist services: Legion Arts provides a range of services designed to support local and visiting artists in their professional development and their participation in an Iowa artist network. Funding and space are allocated for artists engaged in residences and the creation of new work.

Cultural engagement: as owner and operator of historic CSPS hall, Legion Arts serves as an anchor and cultural advocate for our district and our larger community- in effect, as a center for the creative city. To Arts entrepreneurs we offer market-rate retail space; to citizen initiatives around preservation, development and civic involvement, we offer interactive Arts experiences, workshops, educational residencies and similar activities. Participants directly served during the past year is estimated at approximately 4,000.
