Our Mission:
Our mission is to provide opportunities to learn & celebrate the diverse areas of folk culture through music & the arts.

Objectives:
Encourage, educate and enrich people. Create and provide a cultural event for the community. Draw an interest from outside the area to open a new venue for economic development. Bring together organizations and individuals. Establish a local performing arts stage. WE DID IT IN 2004!!! Create facilities to support the arts.

Our Purpose:
To expand facilities and educational programming related to the arts in our region. To plan and provide a traditional music and folk art festival in order to create cultural opportunity for the community, improve potential for economic development, and attempt to define and meet the artistic needs of this community.

Our Vision:
VNAF envisions creating, at least, one quality performance stage (DONE DEAL 2004) and possibly other public facilities on the site it utilizes, with the hope to expand improvements to other artistically related public sites. We strive to provide subsidy to artistic educational programs within our region. We plan to achieve this by hosting a sought after annual musical and art event requiring a cap on ticket sales, able to support its own office with paid receptionists, expanding to include quality exhibits of the traditional arts from all media and increasing educational sessions. WOW! Surely everyone wants to help do that? All donations are tax deductible!
