Formed in 2004, the Pauls Valley Arts Council is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to all facets of the arts in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma and the surrounding region. The Pauls Valley Arts and Cultural Center was officially opened in 2010 and is now being used for meetings, art walks, art shows, workshops, small theatre productions and other art related projects.

Some of the PVAC’s noteworthy community efforts since its formation include hosting a series of summer arts & theater workshops, sponsoring summer concerts ‘Music in the Park’ in the Pauls Valley’s historic Wacker Park band shell, producing live theatrical plays, and  bringing the Oklahoma City Philharmonic to Pauls Valley.  Among the most popular themed events hosted by the PVAC are the Halloween Art & Glow Show, Past-Present-Future Art Show, Garvin County and surrounding areas Student Art Shows, Garvin County Mental Health Art Show, The Man Art Show, and the Trashformation Art Show.  The Trashformation Art Show was a finalist in the 2014 Keep Oklahoma Beautiful Environmental Excellence Awards.  Another event, the Trash In Fashion Show, a runway competition where outfits had to be made out of 80% reused materials, received top honors at the 2013 Keep Oklahoma Beautiful Awards by receiving the OGE Environmental Excellence Award.  In June of 2017, PVAC added the Fifth Friday Art Walks where local galleries, local businesses, and the Pauls Valley Arts and Cultural Center display local and out of town artists including artists’ talks/live demonstrations, chalk artists, face painting, and  street performers such as mariachi bands, Celtic bands, solo musicians, bag pipe bands, celloists,  duets, a stilt walker, uni-cyclist, dancing inside a hoop, and a fire breather.  In June of 2019, PVAC had its first “Fiber Show” displaying some of the state’s finest quilts and needlepoint works for three consecutive days. PVAC is also working towards joining the National Barn Quilt Trail! 

In 2019, the Arts Council Theatre (ACT) group was re-established as a component of PVAC. The purpose of ACT is to bring theatre back to the town of Pauls Valley and the surrounding communities. Among recent events are acting workshops and the Dearly Departed Production.
