We are dedicated to providing arts access for our community. All of us at SVMoA are channeling our innermost creativity to bring the arts to YOU! Following are fun online tools, ideas and inspiration for you to engage and stay connected.
Introducing "SVMoA Voices"
As we approached our 50th anniversary, we reached out to the many great minds, talents, and community leaders who have both contributed to—and experienced—the arts with SVMoA.
We asked them a couple of simple questions about the power of the arts, and their answers are anything but ordinary.
Over the next few months, look for weekly posts with personal insights and memories—all connected to the impact and importance of the arts in our lives.
