The Les Cheneaux Arts Council (LCAC) was founded in 1993 by a group of local artists and friends dedicated to promotion, education and participation in the Arts in the Les Cheneaux Community and is a member of the Les Cheneaux Community Foundation. We offer a variety of classes and workshops throughout the summer, host an annual Community Art Exhibition, award Scholarships to Local Student and support Community Organizations by donating funds focused towards the Arts.
