Washington County Arts Council

The Washington County Arts Council has worked to enrich the cultural, social and economic life of the community through nurturing the arts since 1968. The WCAC serves residents of all ages in this diverse and growing county in the Cumberland Valley , nestled in the gently rolling mountains of western Maryland .

Working from its administrative offices and Gallery in historic downtown Hagerstown, the WCAC provides a wide variety of programming, technical assistance, funding opportunities and encouragement to arts organizations and individual artists, helping forge connections between them and those who need art in their lives.

The Antietam Review, the popular literary journal published by the Washington County Arts Council, was suspended in 2006. The organization's management made the decision to halt publication based on escalating costs and staffing factors. Plans to re-introduce the magazine as an electronic publication are under discussion.

Unfortunately, old web pages exist forever, and if you have responded to an old online request for submission or application guidelines, these submissions are being returned. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused.
