Artists Are Our Mission.
As we continue to grow, our main priority will always be
Elevating Creative Careers & Lifestyles
Education. Development. Connection.
DAC provides Artist Members with opportunities to further their careers, skills & lifestyles throughout the year, including our Creative Career Support Program.
DAC's Studios on Terrace offers Private Studio Rentals, At-Cost Print Services & space for Connection Groups to come together.

"Being involved with DAC has been the catalyst for my art career.
The community, support, motivation and professional opportunities have helped me build confidence as an artist.
I now have a full time art business that I am proud of and passionate about."
- Laura Erickson

"DAC fulfills my needs as an artist in so many different ways.
Along with connecting me with a strong and faithful customer base, I have met so many other talented artists that encourage and want the best for each other. Running an art business can feel isolating, but I don’t feel so alone thanks to the artists at DAC.
It’s like a little family which I just love"
- Mallory Weizbicki
Opportunities For Artists To Grow
Our Vendor Events give Artists a way to sell their Art to locals & visitors alike, but the impact doesn't stop there.
Every DAC Event features a wide array of Artists--musicians, bartenders, cooks, magicians, performers--who are paid to bring their skills to make our events what the community has come to expect!
These events continue to bring support to all of our Local Businesses.
West Side Creative Market
In 2022 we invested over $60,000 to completely transform this space, creating an elevated experience for our Artist Vendors and the thousands of guests who attended this year.
Not only does Creative Market give opportunities to Artists, it is a major vehicle for DAC to raise funds. We are able to provide our Members with at-cost programming through the money made off of drink, snack, merch, & DIY sales throughout the year.
Built For The Future of Art.
West Side Creative Market was upgraded this year to ensure that Art in our community has a place to call home for years to come.
This involved removing existing gravel & grading the lot, building a specially designed covered structure of 21 Artist booths, installing a well, new electrical connections, planting sod, and more!
The Impact Of Our Investment is Clear.
When DAC first moved to West Rehoboth, we were approached by Brenda Milbourne, who co-founded and leads the West Side New Beginnings West Children and Youth Program, along with Diaz Bonville
A relationship of education, understanding, and collaboration was born.
DAC learned about the history of West Rehoboth through Brenda, Diaz Bonville, and other community members, and with their direction, we began a plan to tell that story through Art.

"DAC and West Side New Beginnings, Inc have brought the community together by extending invitations to each other. Our relationship is forever."
- Brenda Milbourne
We Need Your Support.
The growth we have achieved this year has been the result of a lot of hard work, but also, a lot of funding. Our goal is to never make money off of our Artist Members, so we rely solely on our revenue generating programming, grants, and the generous support of YOU, our community.
