Last March as we geared up to have our annual volunteer appreciation events and celebrations, COVID-19 came in the way and brought our volunteer program to a halt.
With travel off the table for the time being, our Art Quiz this quarter brings you on a journey to Europe to whet your appetite for when we can once again travel for leisure.
This year’s school workshops have gone virtual! The AGGV’s workshops for school-aged learners look a lot different this year, and we’re excited to share them with you! This project started with a heartfelt conversation between local artists Bradley Yuxwelupton Dick, Farheen HaQ, and the AGGV’s Educator of School & Family Programs, Jennifer Van de Pol.
