Arts Education & Advocacy Collaborative

One of the Guiding Principles of the Ventura Educational Partnership (VEP) is for VEP to act in a networking function to develop collaboratives that will support VEP priorities. Included in our vision statement is VEP’s desire to enhance opportunities for lifelong learning and enjoyment of the arts. As such VEP has worked along with the Ventura Unified School District (VUSD), the City of Ventura, local arts organizations and artists as well as with other interested parties (parents, private schools, and adult education) to establish an Arts Education and Advocacy Collaborative.

This collaborative works to seek funding and other support for arts projects identified by the collaborative. Such projects may include activities provided during or after school, as well as community events or programs not associated with the schools but which target Ventura students of all ages.

The VEP Arts Collaborative meets the fourth Thursday of each month from 3:30-5 p.m. at the ESC. Georgeanne Lees is the chair.

The collaborative has developed a Master Plan for Arts Education in the Ventura Unified School District. To view a copy, go here.
