Supporting contemporary artistic innovation and education

 

As a cultural institution, we value diverse perspectives and experiences that add complexity and nuance to the questions and ideas we explore. 

The VAC is committed to presenting challenging, dialogue-producing experiences whose purpose is to use art as a means of knowledge production and promotion to enact social change through meaningful discussions between the public, artists, and the institution.

We respect the diversity of ideas and support different perspectives through equity and inclusive practice.
