DFVA Mission Statement

The Delaware Foundation for Visual Arts (DFVA) is a non-profit, membership organization dedicated to the preservation of the arts. Our mission is to develop a wide ranging network of support and encouragement for the aspiring visual artist and to foster understanding and appreciation of art and its importance in our society.

This is accomplished by:

· Annually awarding scholarships to high school seniors pursuing a career in the visual arts.

· Providing workshops and seminars for the continued growth of the serious student as well as the advanced artist.

· Scheduling thought provoking exhibits and educational programs to inspire the public, promote the arts and fund raise for our scholarship program.
