ASPVA Grand Opening

ASPVA Celebrates 20 Years

Let’s Amplify Arts!

ASPVA has been a beacon of opportunity since 2006, providing free access to creative activities for those who might otherwise miss out. Our community outreach program is supported in part by generous donors through Amplify Austin’s “I Live Here, I Give Here” annual fundraising campaign. This 24-hours of giving is March 4-5 from 6pm to 6pm.

Our goal is to raise $10,000 so that we may continue to bring our art programs to foster children, children with rare medical conditions, and students from economically disadvantaged areas within the greater Austin community. The transformative power of arts education is within reach for all, thanks to folks like you!
