Our Vision
Virginians for the Arts is the statewide organization advocating for a vibrant future for the arts in Virginia communities.
Our Mission
Virginians for the Arts engages Virginians in a united advocacy effort to protect and increase public support for the arts.
Virginians for the Arts:
- Advocates for increased public funding for the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts.
- Pursues legislative actions that will improve conditions for the arts and artists, and discourages legislation that would adversely affect Virginia’s arts industry.
- Communicates regularly and effectively with our membership of artists, arts organizations and citizens statewide about advocacy issues and opportunities.
- Works to increase the public value of, and appreciation for, the arts in Virginia.
