CBAC Membership and Sponsorships

The Chequamegon Bay Arts Council (CBAC) is a member-oriented organization.  Anyone interested in the arts is encouraged to become a member.  Funds generated through membership are used to support the local grant program, publish a quarterly newsletter, maintain the website, and cover other general operational expenses. CBAC is run by an all-volunteer Board of Directors, who receive no monetary compensation for their work.

Member Benefits
• Receive CBAC mailings, which include the quarterly newsletter and announcements for upcoming exhibits and events.
• Utilize our marketing avenues (Facebook, Instagram and Email) by submitting your events and announcements into this digital reach–it can be up to over 3,000 views! Please email for more info.
• Opportunity to enter Member-Only shows.
• Discount fees for workshops and continuing education seminars sponsored by CBAC.
• Help support and encourage quality art in the Bay area.  Financial support obtained through membership dollars allows CBAC to obtain state level grants, which require a dollar-for-dollar match. CBAC then redistributes funds to support project grants and artistic development grants in Ashland and Bayfield Counties.
• Arts networking. As a member, you will meet and enjoy other local people who share your love of the arts.

  • Prominent display of your name and logo on CBAC’s website, cbayarts.org, in the quarterly newsletter, Artifacts, and in all other promotional materials produced throughout the year.
