Mission and History
===================

The John Michael Kohler Arts Center is a not-for-profit organization
established in 1967 for aesthetic and educational purposes. Its
mission is to encourage and support innovative explorations in the
arts and to foster an exchange between a national community of artists
and a broad public that will help realize the power of the arts to
inspire and transform our world. The Arts Center serves as laboratory
for the creation of new works, nurturer of interdisciplinary
initiatives, originator of exhibitions, presenter and producer of
performing arts, educator, publisher of critical writings, community
builder, and advocate for issues affecting the arts. In essence, JMKAC
functions as a catalyst for and explorer of new art forms and new
ideas that will impact the lives of both artists and public.

A major focus of the program shall be exhibitions devoted to a wide
range of concepts and directions in contemporary art, with particular
consideration of craft-related forms, installation works, photography,
new genres, ongoing cultural traditions, and the work of self-taught
artists. The exhibitions shall encourage the creation of new work and
shall involve substantive critical explorations.

The performing arts shall emphasize new directions as well as
continuing and evolving cultural traditions in dance, theatre, music,
and interdisciplinary forms through programming that brings together
artists from around the world with diverse regional audiences.

The Connecting Communities program shall collaborate with Community
Partners to involve outstanding artists with area cultural communities
and a wide range of constituencies with special needs in the creation
of powerful original works of art and, in the process, to aid in
uniting and strengthening the community and the region.

In cooperation with American business, Arts/Industry shall provide
support for artists in the creation of new work and in the
investigation of new ways of thinking and making art through long-term
residencies and other programming at manufacturing sites. At the same
time, Arts/Industry shall involve the industrial community and other
audiences with the artists and their work.

The collections shall be of significance to the Arts Center's program
and constituencies, concentrating primarily on the work of self-taught
artists, ongoing cultural traditions, and works created in
Arts/Industry. They shall be used in on-site and touring exhibitions
as well as in research and education.

Education shall be a fundamental tenet of all programming. Educational
and interpretive services shall relate directly to the exhibitions,
collections, performing arts programming, Connecting Communities, and
Arts/Industry as well as to the Arts Center‘s architecture and
gardens. They shall employ the integration of the arts as a primary
educational tool. Such services may take the form of artists‘
residencies; an arts-based preschool, classes, and camps; festivals
and other special events; scholarly publications; guided tours,
lectures, and demonstrations; resource center; retail shops;
programming for constituencies with special needs such as schools,
universities, daycare centers, English-language-learner programs,
shelters, and children and adults with disabilities; and/or any other
means that encourage a continuing dialogue between artists and public
and heighten their understanding of and sensitivity to all the arts.

At the very heart of the John Michael Kohler Arts Center are its
local, regional, and national constituencies and the unique, very real
relationship between artists and public. The Arts Center shall nurture
the involvement of children of all ages, through the schools,
families, and community organizations. Likewise, it shall engage the
broadest possible adult audiences. The Arts Center shall continue its
leadership roles of nourishing diversity and building community
through the arts. In all programming, the Arts Center shall cultivate
connections: between artists and audiences, between artists and
communities, between emerging and established artists, between local
and visiting artists, between the Arts Center and other organizations,
between art forms, and between past and present.
