Celebrate VCCA’s 50th Birthday
Celebrate VCCA’s first 50 years, and help shape the next 50 years of this beloved artist residency program. Joyous fundraising festivities are taking place this summer, with proceeds supporting VCCA’s 50th Anniversary Fund, a new effort to fund at least 50 first-time residencies for artists of color through 2023.
Garden Gala, June 25, 2022, 6 p.m.
After postponing in-person celebrations of VCCA’s purchase of Mt. San Angelo in 2020 and its official 50th birthday in 2021 due to the pandemic, we are thrilled to invite sponsors and ticket holders to in-person festivities at VCCA’s beautiful home in the foothills of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains. The evening will feature food and drink by Meriwether Godsey, live music by Martina DaSilva, tours of the grounds, and display of artworks available for bidding in our corresponding online art auction!
