About Us
Help Local Art and Artists Thrive
The arts do more than brighten a community. They connect people, support local artists and galleries, and contribute to a vibrant local economy.
Through efforts such as First Friday Art Walks, ArtCoZ motivates residents and visitors to experience local art, support creative businesses, and discover the artists and galleries that make the Zanesville area distinctive.
From September 14 through September 28, ArtCoZ is participating in The Big Give. Gifts to the ArtCoZ Endowment Fund build long-term support for ArtCoZ programs and projects and help the organization earn a proportional share of up to $50,000 in matching funds from the Muskingum County Community Foundation.
Your support helps ArtCoZ introduce the arts to the community, promote local artists and galleries, and use creativity as a driver of community and economic growth.
Thank You Visit Zanesville!
Visit Zanesville is a wonderful partner in promoting the arts in Zanesville and Muskingum County. We appreciate their support!
