How to participate
The IAC is excited to celebrate our accomplishments with YOU! We invite IAC grantees to participate in our social media campaign by sharing a short 30-second video testimonial demonstrating how the IAC has affected your arts programming or artistic practice. Please post your video directly to your personal or organization’s social media page. Please remember to tag the Illinois Arts Council and include the hashtags #IllinoisArtsCouncil, #IAC60, #IAC60Strong, and #IAC60andBeyond.
This campaign will continue throughout 2025. We hope that you will join us in celebrating the arts together!
