Engaging the community with visual arts
We call it "Artreach"—partnering with regional businesses and nonprofits to provide the Chagrin Valley and Northeast Ohio with vibrant visual arts opportunities.
Working together with private companies and public organizations, we sponsor programs and events that take VAC into the greater community, allowing members of other organizations to get to know us and all we offer. Check out all the ways Valley Art Center
engages with the local community. |

Senior-to-Senior Art Program
Valley Art Center is involved in partnership programs throughout our community, made possible through grants, and donations from people like you. Like our Senior-to-Senior Art Program that debuted in 2015 at Hamlet Village retirement community. |
Other community partnerships
Valley Art Center is one of seven non-profit arts organizations in the Village who actively support each other in their missions. From classical guitar at an art opening, to filmmakers speaking in our gallery, to astrophotography on our walls, the creativity of our neighbor organizations finds a home at Valley Art Center.

Local businesses
Our exhibitions and events are supported by businesses and individuals who provide much needed financial and in-kind sponsorships. VAC works actively with galleries and art businesses in the Village to promote retail art sales in Chagrin Falls. An active member of the Chagrin Valley Chamber of Commerce, in 2016, we helped found and promote the Chagrin Falls ArtsHop. VAC has recently organized art competitions and exhibitions with several local businesses fostering art beyond our walls.
