It has deep roots here and is committed to working with all who care passionately about improving our community. The Foundation comes to the table with an in-depth understanding of the IE and our nonprofit sector and extensive experience with our donors that can make a meaningful difference—now and in the future.

California Desert Arts Council (CDAC) unifies, empowers, and promotes arts and culture in the Coachella Valley region through initiatives in advocacy, business and professional development, cultural tourism and promotion, and education. We believe the arts in all forms and constructs are vital to thriving communities.
