About ORAC
The Ozark Regional Arts Council (ORAC) is committed to promoting cultural arts and art education for all ages in north central Arkansas and south central Missouri, known as the Twin Lakes region.
Incorporated in 1997 as Artist League of the Ozarks, and currently doing business as the Ozark Regional Arts Council, the organization is celebrating its 23rd year promoting artists and art groups.
2011 marked the first year for the ORAC monthly public art exhibits held in the Ozark Regional Arts Council Conference Room, located on the second level of the Vada Sheid Community Development Center on the Arkansas State University Mountain Home campus. In 2014, these monthly exhibits were moved into the newly built Vada Sheid Art Gallery also located on the 2nd floor.
The art exhibits have included works by solo artists and group exhibits by art organizations featuring art works by local artists within an 80-mile radius of Mountain Home, Arkansas. New exhibits go up around the first of each month and a reception is held each first Thursday of each month so the public may meet with the exhibiting artist(s).
