Since the 1960s, the Missouri Arts Council has helped bring the arts to all the people of the state. By providing grants to large and small communities, public and private schools, and artists and arts programs, the Missouri Arts Council makes quality arts programming possible. Beneficiaries range from small local arts councils, such as the Shelbina Arts Council and The Pleiades Journal from The University of Central Missouri, to internationally renowned organizations, such as the Saint Louis Symphony.

The Missouri Arts Council is a state government agency and a division of the Missouri Department of Economic Development. Funding is received from the Missouri General Assembly, Missouri Arts Council Trust (commonly known as the Missouri Cultural Trust), and National Endowment for the Arts.
