Van Wezel Foundation THE VAN WEZEL FOUNDATION’S MISSION is to create a world-class performing arts center
that enriches the community, supports arts education and inspires young minds. The Foundation has partnered with the City of Sarasota since 1987 to support arts education throughout our region, serving more than 40,000 students with enriching arts-based education opportunities and professional development for more than 400 teachers across five counties. Although the pandemic has made in-person access to arts programs not possible, philanthropic support has allowed the Van Wezel Hall Arts Education programs to thrive. Thanks to generous donors, innovative new partnerships and virtual programs have been developed around diversity and inclusion. Important work is being done with the Early Learning Coalition to provide kindergarten readiness. Trained teaching artists are meeting the demand for social emotional learning for students, professional development for educators, as well as using the arts as a therapeutic mental health tool for families.
