VCCA Connects: Bringing Art to the Community
The Virginia Center for the Creative Arts (VCCA) is thrilled to continue its new traveling event series in our region! In partnership with neighboring community spaces, we’re connecting local art lovers to the creative work of VCCA Fellows who visit VCCA from around the world. Each program features a small group of VCCA Fellows who share their creative work and answer questions from the audience.
VCCA Connects events are always free and open to the public.
