AN EXPERIENCE
BIG ARTS Programs
BIG ARTS, formally known as the Barrier Island Group for the Arts, was created by and for the community more than four decades ago. Its founding principle remains to this day: to experience and celebrate the artist in all of us and to remind us of our shared humanity. Each year we offer a vibrant cultural palette of performing and fine arts, films, workshops and lectures that enrich our lives. Come experience the power of the arts and the joy of coming together at BIG ARTS. LEARN MORE about BIG ARTS: History and Future.
