VCCA is throwing a party on Saturday, June 17, 2023. Patrons of the arts are invited to join VCCA Board, friends, and supporters at Mt. San Angelo, home to VCCA’s flagship artist residency program in the rolling foothills of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, for a special evening featuring:

  • Live music by Martina DaSilva
  • Dinner, dessert, and drinks by Meriwether Godsey
  • Art sale featuring work by VCCA Fellows and friends
  • Golf cart tours to explore VCCA’s grounds, gardens, and outdoor artwork

Join the Party and Support VCCA

In addition to supporting VCCA’s Annual Fund, this year’s fundraising gala will once again benefit VCCA’s 50th Anniversary Fellowships for Artists of Color — a landmark program that is providing free first-time VCCA residencies to 50 artists of color each year. Gifts to VCCA’s 50th Anniversary Fund help ensure VCCA can deliver on the full scope of its mission: to provide time and space to national and international writers, visual artists, and composers of talent and promise to bring forth their finest works, because the arts are vital, diversity is a strength, and creativity is essential.

2022 Gala Recap

Thank you to everyone who gathered at Mt. San Angelo last year to celebrate the first 50 years of VCCA and the launch of the 50th Anniversary Fund! It was a pleasure to welcome 100+ guests to our home at Mt. San Angelo, the magical hilltop where writers, visual artists, and composers come from across the globe to pursue their creative work in a supportive and inspiring environment.

We look forward to hosting another fabulous fundraising event in 2023 and hope to see both new and familiar faces. See you there!
