| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | VALLEY PERFORMING ARTS COUNCIL (VPAC) WAS ESTABLISHED IN MARCH OF 1997 AS A NON-PROFIT EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION PROVIDING LOCAL GRADE SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH EXPOSURE TO THE CLASSICAL PERFORMING ARTS. VPAC BELIEVES IN EDUCATING CHILDREN IN CLASSICAL ARTS - ARTS THAT HAVE SURVIVED THE TEST OF TIME WHICH PROVIDES LASTING VALUE TO SOCIETY. VPAC'S PRIMARY MISSION IS TO EXPOSE CHILDREN TO THE BEAUTY, WISDOM, AND TRUTH THAT CLASSICAL ARTS IMPART TO US. IN THIS MODERN WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE FOCUS OF EDUCATION HAS SHIFTED FURTHER FROM A CURRICULUM CONCERNED WITH BUILDING CHARACTER. THE ARTS HAVE LONG SURVIVED AS A WAY TO BETTER THE UNDERSTANDING, EXPRESSION, AND FUTURE OF OUR RACE. LEARNING, STUDYING AND MASTERING DIFFERENT FORMS OF CLASSICAL ARTS HELPS TEACH OUR CHILDREN THE VALUE OFCOMPASSION, INTEGRITY, PERSONAL STRENGTH, AND RESPECT FOR OURSELVES AND OTHERS. GREAT CLASSICAL ART FOCUSES NOT ONLY ON THE TECHNICAL MASTERY OF PAINTING, DANCING OR PLAYING AN INSTRUMENT, BUT ALSO TEACHES THE HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF GREAT AND INFLUENTIAL THINKERS. ART MEANS MANY THINGS TO MANY PEOPLE. UNDER THE DIRECTION AND PHILOSOPHY OF ARTISTIC DIRECTOR YUKARI THIESEN, WE BELIEVE THAT ART SHOULD HAVE A BENEFICIAL IMPACT IN OUR SOCIETY. WE STRIVE TO MATERIALIZE OUR BELIEF ANDPASS IT ON TO A NEW GENERATION OF BALLET STUDENTS WHO ARE MEMBERS OF FRESNO DANCE THEATER SPONSORED BY VPAC. ART EDUCATION FOR GRADE SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE CENTRAL BALLET HAS BEEN STEADILY DECLINING OVER THE LAST 11 YEARS. THERE ARE MANY REASONS BEHIND THE PROBLEM, BUT THE FACT IS THE ARTS ARE NEXT TO NON-EXISTENT IN THE LIVES OF OUR CHILDREN. THEY ARE GROWING UP WITHOUT KNOWING THE EXISTENCE OF ANY OF OUR GREAT CLASSICAL MUSIC COMPOSITIONS, BALLETS, OPERAS OR VISUAL ARTS;THIS IS NOT THE CASE IN EUROPE, JAPAN OR OTHER ADVANCED COUNTRIES. AS A RESULT, WE NOW HAVE CHILDREN UNEDUCATED IN THE ARTS BECOMING EDUCATORS WHO DO NOT KNOW THE NAMES OF FAMOUS CLASSICAL OPERAS, BALLETS OR MUSIC. THEY CALL "THE NUTCRACKER" A PLAY. THEY ARE WAITING FOR BALLET DANCERS TO SPEAK. IN THIS DEPRESSED ECONOMY, UNLESS CONCERNED CITIZENS STEP FORWARD TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION, WE WILL BE GUILTY OF CREATING ART ILLITERATES AMONG OUR NEXT GENERATION. AT VPAC, OUR GOAL IS TO FIND OUR GRADE SCHOOL CHILDREN AT LEAST "ONE" OPPORTUNITY WHILE THEY ARE IN SCHOOL TO SEE A BALLET. |
