We rely on people like you
Valley Art Center is a creative community that depends on members, volunteers, donors, and sponsors. We encourage you to join our membership, give what you can, and even consider becoming an event sponsor. And we hope you’ll be among the hundreds of individuals who volunteer time, talent, and expertise to ensure that our programs, events, and facilities run smoothly. If volunteering isn't your thing, you can still help us out by leaving a positive rating on our Facebook and Google pages. Playing a role in the arts is a rewarding experience that keeps VAC patrons and volunteers returning to lend a hand again and again!
