National ArtsGames Committees (NACs)

Benefits of Developing National ArtsGames Committees (NACs)

A National ArtsGames Committee (NAC) is being established in every country. The role of the NAC is to market the ArtsGames Movement and, once every four years, support the national team by providing gear, travel and hospitality in preparation for the ArtsGames competition.

The value that NACs bring is their development of marketing initiatives to promote national pride and unity around support of their artists.

Function of National ArtsGames Committees

The National ArtsGames Committee (NAC) consults with each of the 29 National ArtsGames Federations (NAFs) in each country. As National ArtsGames Federations each oversee a specific discipline in the arts, the NAC must aggregate those 29 NAFs once every four years to review the list of artists who have qualified to compete in the ArtsGames.

That list is used to engage sponsors and fashion designers to manufacture apparel for the national team.

Starting in September 2025, you will be able to track when NACs are being established in your country.

The Pride of the Nation

Just like National Olympic Committees, National ArtsGames Committees are charged with bringing all 29 disciplines in their respective countries under one flag for the Games. They work with their government, sponsors and volunteers to support their best talent, who will represent their nation on a world stage.

Artists, unlike athletes, routinely engage in interdisciplinary collaborations as a matter of practice. The NAC is tasked with promoting such collaboration as integral to the ArtsGames mandate. They will be encouraged to share their culture at the ArtsGames competition in various prearranged events that will promote the best in their respective cultures on a world stage.

The NACs represent a country’s best interest. In marketing local and national artistic talent, they provide the national team with uniformity in national clothing, protocols and encouragement to always demonstrate the excellence that exists in that nation’s culture.
