The Irving Arts Board was created by the City Council in 1980 and charged with the responsibility of encouraging and supporting local arts activities and with the development and oversight of the Irving Arts Center and Irving Museums and Archives. The work of the 11-person board is funded through a portion of the local hotel room occupancy tax.
