Pocatello Arts Council
The Pocatello Arts Council was established in 1991 to serve as an advisory board to the Pocatello City Council in matters related to the arts. We hope you'll find this web site to be informative. You'll find a link to projects we've been involved in - both completed ones and ones we're working on now. We also have a link to calls for artistic works the PAC is sponsoring. Another link will describe the grants we have available for small projects - our way of stimulating the local arts community. We've also implemented a couple of pages which we think you'll find a little different, if not totally unique. One is a page which will allow you to submit pictures of things that you think someone might consider to be art. We call that page "What is Art?". We've started it out with a few pictures of our own to help stimulate some interaction - we hope you'll find it interesting and thought provoking. Then, of course, we have the obligatory about page. It will tell you some more about the PAC. We're also including there a section where you can "meet" the members of the Council and see what artistic things are important to them. Have fun.
Alternate Styles
You will note that at the bottom of this page there are several "styles" with which you can view these pages. Each "style" represents a different Cascading Style Sheet - the actual HTML markup remains the same.
Picture Information
The pictures in the header are some digital snapshots taken around town. On the left is a bison sculpture which was the prototype for the work installed by the Portneuf Greenway Foundation on the South Main Street Extension. The Arts Council was instrumental in helping the Greenway Foundation acquire and install the final product. Next is a picture of Pocatello City Hall, our home. You may recognize the third picture - it's on the old Greyhound bus depot, and is one of only two remaining working neon signs. The picture on the right is Scout Mountain as viewed from the East Fork Mink Creek road in early 2006.
