VSA recognizes the positive influence of the arts to advance teaching and learning in the
classroom. Because a skilled teaching artist can foster creative engagement and help build an
inclusive environment, VSA is seeking outstanding teaching artists with disabilities for the
Teaching Artist Fellows program.
The VSA Teaching Artist Fellowship program seeks to identify, engage, and support teaching
artists with disabilities in the visual and performing arts. VSA recognizes the value of teaching
artists in integrating the arts into education. Teaching artists with disabilities also serve as role
models of diversity, expression, and inclusive learning in the classroom.
