The mission of the Hillsborough Arts Council (HAC), a volunteer- <br /> driven organization, is to enrich the community through the arts. HAC <br /> achieves this by fostering appreciation of the arts, engaging diverse <br /> audiences in events and programs, and connecting artists with <br /> audiences. HAC strives to fulfill its mission by directly serving a wide <br /> and diverse audience of residents and artists in Hillsborough and <br /> Northern Orange County. HAC collaborates with municipal and <br /> community organizations to reach residents, tourists and visitors, <br /> and find innovative ways to bring programming to at-risk and isolated <br /> communities. <br /> Each year, HAC's offers twelve programs that are designed to <br /> support and reinforce its mission of community enrichment through <br /> the arts. Nearly all programs are free to attend and open for public <br /> enjoyment and participation. Due to the pandemic, it is now far more <br /> difficult to fulfill HAC's mission to serve greater Orange County. <br /> However, HAC is an organization of artists, we like a creative <br /> challenge, and we now offer online programming that allows HAC to <br /> reach its audience and continue to support artists. Last Friday <br /> Summer Concerts and Paint it Orange are two programs that have <br /> moved online. In addition, new programs such as the HAC Writers <br /> Series and Mobile Community Stage will promote connectivity to the <br /> arts while maintaining required social distancing for artist and <br /> audience safety. HAC also introduced school-based programs across <br /> the Orange County School District to support online learning and arts <br /> programming in the newly formed arts curriculum. <br /> Currently, how many 1 <br /> full-time staff <br /> members does your <br /> organization employ? <br /> Currently, how many 1 <br /> part-time staff <br /> members does your <br /> organization employ? <br />
