VSA Programs

For the past three decades, VSA has fostered the inclusion of the arts in education for students and adults with disabilities through work in classrooms and communities.

VSA administers numerous programs that stimulate the use of the arts as a valuable educational tool in the classroom, for life-long learning and as a means to develop skills for future employment. VSA also offers several programs that recognize the artistic accomplishments of young and emerging artists with disabilities through awards of excellence and achievement.

All of VSA's work encourages individuals with disabilities to be active participants in their education, in their communities, and in the arts. Vital to all VSA's programs is the involvement of dedicated parents, volunteers, families, teachers, trainers, educators, artists, and other experts. We invite you to learn more about our programs.
