SUPPORT THE VCCA

Opportunities for giving


Named endowed fellowship $50,000-$100,000
Leadership gifts for Named Fellowships build the VCCA's endowment while underwriting residencies of promising writers, visual artists, and composers in perpetuity. Candidates are selected through the VCCA's juried selection process. Fellowship recipients and sponsors are recognized in VCCA's Annual Report.

• $50,000 endows a two-week residency annually.

• $100,000 endows a four-week residency annually.

 

Named studios $50,000
A leadership gift to name a studio offers an opportunity to honor a family or individual whose ties are historically important to the VCCA or to the arts. Named studios honor those patrons of the arts whose support and vision provide inspiration. Recognition includes a bronze plaque on the studio door reflecting the donor's vision.

 • $50,000 helps build the endowment to provide perpetual care of 22 studios, including roof replacement and maintenance.

 

Barn roof and hayloft renovation $50,000
While funding for the major portion of replacing the barn roof has been completed, the hayloft area has specific insulation and renovation requirements that were not included in the original quote. This space will offer multiple opportunities for exhibits, experimental installations, and VCCA hosted gatherings.

 

Entrance and related enhancements $50,000  New pillars at the property entrance with historic restored ironwork gate and new surface material for Fellows/Guest parking area are planned and provide an opportunity for recognizing a benefactor who provides a salutatory greeting for all who enter the magic world of the VCCA. Upgrades, including grading, drainage, resurfacing and lighting for pedestrian safety, are also planned.

          

Restoration of antebellum gardens $50,000
The original gardens at Mt. San Angelo, while including many rare, mature specimens of plants and trees, have fallen behind as resources have been focused on renovating and refurbishing existing structures. A recent initiative was undertaken to reclaim a small portion, an ancient sunken garden that has been named in honor of past VCCA board president and artist Linda Wachtmeister. The results were dazzling and indicative of the rewards of rebuilding the mazes, arbors, and contemplative places that once surrounded the original Italianate mansion.
