The Gloucester County Cultural & Heritage Commission will become a strong advocate and resource in providing cultural & arts education, support for community based cultural & artistic organization and promoting values and benefits derived from cultural & artistic experience. We will provide public access, educate and expose all segments of the population to the arts & cultural activities, and foster growth and enhancement of local arts programming.
The Gloucester County Cultural & Heritage Commission services and programs are held in county facilities and are wheelchair accessible. When applicable and upon notice, we will arrange for sign language interpreting and transportation. Assistive listening devices are offered at no charge through the Gloucester County Library and large print programs are available upon request. All information on the Gloucester County Cultural & Heritage Commission can be found on the county home page at www.gloucestercountynj.gov
