Funded through a special voter-approved millage, the Cultural Arts Division offers a wide variety of programs, classes and events throughout the year. This department maintains the City Gallery in the Costick Activities Center, which displays the work of area artists.
The Cultural Arts Division also helps with the Festival of the Arts, the Farmington Area Artist in Residence, the Distinguished Service to the Arts Awards, a free summer concert series in Heritage Park and the Cultural Concert Series. The Cultural Arts Division presents Art on the Grand, a spring fine arts fair featuring live music and street performances and held in downtown Farmington. Young artists are invited to participate in Next Stage, a coaching program for performers, Farmington Hills Youth Choir and Farmington Hills Youth Theatre.
