Visual & Performing Arts

Welcome to the VUSD Ventura & Performing Arts (VAPA) webpage. VUSD is deeply committed to providing all students access to high-quality arts education across five key disciplines: visual arts, media arts, dance, drama, and music. This work is strengthened through partnerships with the Ventura Education Partnership, the City of Ventura, Vita Art Center, Ventura County Potters Guild, and the Downtown Rotary Club. The Arts are essential in fostering creativity, critical thinking, and emotional well-being. VUSD will continue to champion the Arts through collaboration and innovation, ensuring every student has the opportunity to experience, engage with, and thrive in the Arts.
