Sylvania arts looks to promote awareness and interest in the performing arts, education of arts, and visual arts in the community for all ages. The organization was founded in 1980 as a grassroots committee who focused on the visual arts while working to acquire public art and promote the creation of art through the 1980’s and 1990’s.
