Join VSA arts of California at Sacramento (VSAS) for high quality artistic productions in ceramics, hip-hop dance, puppetry, rock music, drawing and painting, and mural-making, created by students participating in the I Can Do That! Artists-in-the-Schools Program. Additionally, multiple Funshops (hands-on workshops in the Arts) are provided for children to interact with entertaining activities.
Over 3,000 children of all abilities attend Festivals, showing of their skills and talents in either visual arts displays or performances. 300 artists and community members volunteer their time at the Festivals, and audience members from the general public come to view the artwork and performances, and to participate in funshop activities.
