VCAF, as it is know, is a jewel of an organization serving Vallejo, CA and all of Solano cCounty and beyond. It is governed by a hardworking and dedicated all volunteer Board who spend many hours developing and promoting activities to keep the artsw vibrant in the community. The Summer Children's Art Camp gives children from 8-15, two weeks of multiple media experiences in many varied aspects of art; from painting to photography to a live stage production. Additionally, VCAF oversees Art Windows, a program that provides local artists the opportunity to display their work in downtown vacant store front windows. This provides them needed exposure and prevent blight. Othr initiatives are too numerous to mention except for the management of the beautiful refurbished Empress Theater that provides a wide variety of live entertainment for the community. VCAF keeps the arts alive in Vallejo and throughout Solano County and I am proud to be a Board member.
Why Do I support the VALLEJO COMMUNITY ARTS FOUNDATION...Where ever I go in the City I get to see the results of VCAF's efforts especially the children art that is constantly showing up at City Hall...a gallery...local Newspaper (Times Herald) or an Art Festival. What this does to a young persons self esteem (8 to 14 year olds) is PRICELESS, and helps mold them into being a better human being.
