Description

Founded in 1978, the Visual Art Institute is Utah’s oldest nonprofit after-school arts organization dedicated to youth. Many students earn local, state, and national awards, and receive scholarships and entrance into top universities and art schools throughout the country. Their success is due in part to VAI's dedication to assisting serious art students build their confidence, technical skills, and portfolios.

We are a leader in providing a life-changing experience for more than 2,600 individuals each year. Our renowned faculty believes that an introduction to a strong art curriculum at an early age is profoundly beneficial to children, and that art will be a positive reflection throughout their life. Our objective is to improve the technical art skill sets, critical thinking ability, and overall well being of our students.

As business professionals, we bring our talents to the workplace daily. We exercise influence, get things done, and move our sector forward. Our professional toolkits are full of the latest and greatest in new ideas and strategies - we are brokers, leaders, educators, artists, and individual producers. Underneath these worthwhile endeavors are our core values that fuel the process. These values are the foundational principles that shape our motives and impact our decisions. The programs, products, and services we deliver will change from time to time, but our core values remain steadfast and permeate every facet from strategy, to people, to progress.
