The Plain City Arts Council
was formed to promote the arts in our town. If you have ideas about anything
that could be happening to enrich Plain City cultural life, whether it's
remembering our rich Pioneer heritage, enjoying today's cultural arts
events, or planning for a brighter cultural environment for tomorrow,
we'd like to hear from you. We meet at the Plain City Senior Center each
3rd Saturday from 9:00 a.m. Come join us.
