Art for ALL. Made Possible by YOU.
VAC is a 501c3 non-profit organization, and with only 50% of our revenue coming from classes, we rely on the generosity of our large community of enthusiastic supporters to continue our mission to change lives through arts enrichment. With generous financial gifts of any amount from friends like you, we further our projects with community partners, we continue to keep course fees low, and we strive to nurture the visual arts in the Chagrin Valley and beyond. Your contribution will support our general fund, scholarships, maintenance, and more. Get in on the action!
Because of generous supporters like you, we are able to:
Elevate local artists through exhibitions, events, and Art by the Falls
Bring creative learning experiences—like clay, photography, and multimedia—to youth at Chagrin Falls Park Community Center
Foster skill-building and creative growth through inclusive classes and workshops
Add vibrancy to shared spaces through public art installations
Make the arts accessible to individuals of all ages and abilities
