About the Morongo Basin Cultural Arts Council

The Morongo Basin Cultural Arts Council is a nonprofit, volunteer-based organization with a 501(c)(3) status. 

The MBCAC’s mission is to inspire and enliven the community through the arts, and to enhance the cultural and economic health of the Morongo Basin region. We do that by relying on memberships, grants, donations, volunteerism and commissions on art sales via:

• Art In Public Places
• Joshua Tree Art Gallery
• The HWY 62 Open Studio Art Tours

If you’re interested in donating time or money to support the Council’s activities, please contact us at info@mbcac.org. Investing in your local nonprofits is investing in the health and prosperity of the community as a whole.

MBCAC's Partnership with Copper Mountain College

MBCAC is thrilled that Copper Mountain College (CMC) is joining with us in what we hope will be a long and rewarding partnership.  Consequently, MBCAC looks forward to welcoming both the CMC and the individual student artists to our membership ranks.  

This partnership allows the MBCAC and its membership to help provide and encourage these young artists to experience the opportunities that are out in the world for them. As part of the membership, MBCAC members are invited to teaching art classes or short month long workshops. If you are an MBCAC member and interested in working with Copper Mountain College, please reach out to stevebrown@cmccd.edu for more information.
