The Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC) acts as an umbrella for community arts councils and schools across the province. Across Saskatchewan, we bring people and the arts together. In more than 80 towns and cities, local arts councils and schools are keeping the arts alive. Thanks to their efforts, those communities enjoy live musical and theatre performances, visual art exhibitions, workshops and special events. "Bringing the Arts to You"
