VSA's purpose is to provide arts and education opportunities for people with disabilities and increase access to the arts for all and to changing perceptions about people with disabilities around the world. Each year, 7 million people of all ages and abilities participate in VSA programs, which cover all artistic genres --music, dance, visual arts, theater and literary arts. They accomplish this through their network of affiliates in 52 countries and VSA state organizations across America.
