CONTACT THE ST. LUCIE CULTURAL ALLIANCE
Our vision is to establish and promote St. Lucie County as the artistic & cultural destination of Florida.
All of our communities are strengthened through embracing art and culture.
In the best and most vital communities, arts and culture are abundant, accessible, and diverse. They serve as a catalyst to generate economic impact, stimulate business development, spur urban renewal, attract tourists and area residents to community activities and improve the overall quality of life.
The power of a group of committed individuals to make a difference in the lives of our citizens, the experience of our visitors, the potential of our students, and the future of our communities is profound.
