Mission Statement:
The East End Arts Council—bringing the arts to everyone and inspiring our communities through support, advocacy and education.

Overview:
The East End Arts & Humanities Council, Inc., is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation founded in 1972 to serve artists and promote the arts on the East End of Long Island. Located in the historic Davis-Corwin (circa 1840) and Benjamin homes (circa 1850) on East Main Street in Riverhead, the Arts Council operates an art gallery and gift shop, as well as the region's only Community School of the Arts. There is a new exhibit every four to six weeks, featuring both well-known and yet-to-be-discovered artists. In the gift shop you can purchase the original work of local craftspeople, as well as hand-pulled prints, original etchings, fine art posters and novelty items. The Arts Council also presents music, dance and theatre at various locations all over the East End.
