Meet the “Unicorns”
ASPVA Teachers are Unicorns!
We like to say that our teachers are the unicorns, that is, gifted artists who have a gift for teaching. And, we have a lot of them! Check out their bios and the other folks who support arts education for all youth.
Also, please remember Amplify Austin’s “I Live Here, I Give Here” annual fundraising campaign begins tonight at 6pm. 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!
