A Special Thank You to Our VAE Art Supply Sponsors!

We are incredibly grateful to the individuals who generously donated art supplies for our Vermilion Arts Experience campers. Your kindness provided our young artists with the tools they needed to imagine, create, and express themselves throughout an unforgettable week of camp.

Every paintbrush, sketchbook, marker, and supply donated helped inspire creativity and build confidence in the children of Vermilion Parish. Thank you for believing in the power of the arts and for investing in experiences that encourage our youth to dream big.

From everyone at VAE and The Vermilion Reach Group, thank you for helping make this camp a meaningful and memorable experience. Your support truly makes a difference!
