IT’S YOUR ART CENTER!
Cultural enrichment and education are essential to the continued quality enhancement and vitality of our city and county. Companies and individuals taking a leadership role in support of the arts can help ensure that we have a stimulating community in which to live, work, and find inspiration. We invite you to join our Annual Operating Fund Drive. Your participation will ensure that The Delaplaine Visual Arts Education Center is able to continue its leadership role in visual arts education for this and future generations. Diversity marks our efforts in terms of programs, art forms, and clientele. We offer art experiences in many forms to the young, the not so young, the disadvantaged, and the advantaged in order to inspire, educate, and challenge. Art is for everyone.
