What is Graduated Art?

Graduated Art classes are classes for adults aged 18 and up. While there are often many art
opportunities for youth in our community, there is a gap in art programming for adults and
particularly, adults with special needs. We at VSA want to fill that need through providing
quality art programming for all adults. These classes offer opportunities for community
building, artistic education, confidence building, and self expression. Each year we offer vis-
ual art classes, an opportunity to sing in choir, as well as an ever-changing specialty course.
Come join the fun at VSA!
