Specific Information about VAi Directors, Personnel, Advisors, & Colleagues

COMING SOON!

Our association is maintained and governed locally by a small group of directors known as the Executive Committee, a board, and personnel, but its activities and overall trajectory can also be influenced by people working directly in written or performing arts. Renowned artists and leaders in the field can fill advisory positions. Local artists and associates working with similar goals for “inspirational, bridged, or enriching arts opportunities” can join the cause with ViVace as colleagues.
The more people we can rally for Written & Performing Arts today, the more solidified future events and opportunities will be for younger generations. Here’s an initial listing of the people who are working with ViVace Assai.
