NH State Council on the Arts Celebrates its 40th Anniversary

On June 28, 1965, SB97 was signed into law, authorizing the State’s first arts agency. Now 40 years later we are celebrating the many ways we have found to fulfill our mission.

Throughout the year (2005-2006), we sponsored special events and activities to bring attention to the ways the arts work for New Hampshire.
