The Visual Arts Center of Richmond engages the community in the creative process through the visual arts.
Through a broad range of studio classes and workshops, we serve
approximately 5,000 adults and children each year. VisArts provides
opportunities for people to express themselves through clay, fiber,
painting, photography, printmaking, glass, metal, drawing, writing and
digital media. It also offers five
exhibitions annually, with work by emerging and established artists and a
focus on innovative materials and processes. The Center is located in a
newly restored, 30,000-sq.-ft. historic building in the Fan District of
Richmond, Virginia. Staffing includes 10 full-time and seven part-time
employees, 75 adjunct instructors, and 250 volunteers. The annual
operating budget is $1.7 million.
