...stands for Volunteers In The Arts

The volunteer program for the Cherokee County Arts Council offers a variety of opportunities for involvement with the arts programming and performances at the Art Center. VITA's foremost focus is to assist the Arts Center in any capacity needed to ensure continued, quality growth of the arts programming.

Mission Statement:
1. To provide the Arts Center with volunteers to assist with performances, exhibits, programs and administrative needs as requested by the staff; and
2. To provide the volunteers with information and insights into arts opportunities both at the Arts Center and in the surrounding communities.

In addition to helping with exhibits, events, art classes and office work, VITA, on behalf of the Arts Council, participates in the holiday festivals of the Cherokee County Library System, as well as sponsoring a new annual event, "Hanging of the Greens at the Art Center", when the facility will be decorated for the Winter holidays.

VITA holds monthly meetings on the Second Thursday of each month at 11:00am. Each meeting will include a program concentrating on some form of arts, as well as an update on upcoming programming and volunteer opportunities at the Center.

An open invitation is extended to anyone who has an interest in the arts to come and see just what VITA is all about.
