Mountain View Arts Council

Welcome to the Mountain View, MO Arts Council website!

Jennie Cummings, Director, mountainview@macaa.net 

The Mountain View Arts Council is a volunteer organization of a director and forty volunteers.  We write grants to the Missouri Arts Council and receive assistance from our membership in the Missouri Association of Community Arts Agencies, www.macaa.net, Mountain View civic groups, merchants, banks and individuals.

Our Cowboy Poetry Festival is held each April, the last full weekend.  The 2008 festival will be April 25,26,27, 2008.  It includes 24 cowboy poets who present their original writings of poems, songs, music, comedy and a couple of reciters who present famous works.  These are very talented singers, actors, storytellers that startle the laughter, bring the tears and just plain out entertain you!  We serve a great Sunday Dinner after the Cowboy Church they perform at the Mountain View United Methodist Church.
