Each concert season the VVCA sponsors visits of the series' performers to local schools and assisted living facilities. These are rare opportunities for students to actually meet and talk with professional stage performers. All at once, these people who seem to be "other worldly" on a stage become folks just like them and it's a great experience of perspective.

There is a rumor that the performers enjoy it, too.

VVCA is proud to announce that the 2011-2012 season will have six residencies. Five residencies will be performed by acclaimed soloist of the Paraguayan harp Alfredo Rolando Ortiz and one residency will be performed by the popular Celtic Spring. If interested in having one of these performers at your school or assisted living facility please contact us.
