A regional arts council may be a nonprofit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) corporation, a regional development commission or an organization that conforms to the definition of a regional arts council but uses a fiscal agent until its 501(c)(3) status is approved. If a council is part of a regional development commission or another entity whose primary mission or function is not serving as a regional arts council, the organization must establish a distinct arts program, guided by an arts advisory council to make recommendations to the commission on the use of the legislative arts allocation.
