The VIP Arts Academy leverages the platform provided by the performing arts to develop sustainable career-ready skills through experiential learning. Each program inspires, teaches, and trains students in Sarasota County, laddering the skills they learn at each level, so that students are prepared for higher education and the 21st-century workforce.
With support from the Florida Department of State’s Division of Cultural Affairs, VIPA is expanding the VIP Arts Academy during the 2019-2020 school year to include after school classes for middle school students and summer camps and classes for all ages.
