Mission Statement

The Valley Educational Center for the Creative Arts, Inc., is dedicated to bringing the community together through educational and cultural programs. By utilizing the professional skill and talents of area residents, an opportunity is created for persons of all ages to pursue the arts and develop their creative skills to whatever degree they desire and to exhibit or perform those skills. By creating an awareness of the arts, we hope to inspire and encourage creativity and develop an active cultural environment throughout the Shenandoah Valley.

Description

VECCA was established in 1982 by local artists and citizens interested in promoting the arts in the Shenandoah Valley. In 1984 VECCA received its 501(c)3 status and eventually settled at its current address in downtown Woodstock. VECCA provides gallery space, shows & venues for artists of any medium for all skill level (beginners to professionals). Scholarships are available to graduating seniors in Shenandoah County for Art, Music, and Writing/Journalism. Since its establishment, VECCA has provided workshops, classes, and programs for Seniors and Children and general community. However, these programs were discontinued due to Covid. We can now safely provide those services again through grant funding but unfortunately do not have the needed volunteers to pull them off. If you would like to be a part of an established Non-profit that wants to continue providing our community and beyond with quality education, creativity, skill, therapy, town enhancement, gallery sitting or projects which can be held In-person or virtually, we would love to have you join us on our journey. Email us at veccarts@gmail.com or go to our website www.vecca.org/contact.html#/ to fill out the online contact form. Here are a few of the areas we need help with immediately: General Volunteers; Artists; Gallery sitters; Fundraising; Board Members/Board Governance; Committee Members and/or any skill or talent you would like to share. Thank you in Advance!
