• Artist residencies available to schools:  Schools in the South Central District can apply directly to VSA arts of Indiana for an artist residency. The Columbus Area Arts Council also has grants available to support arts education programs for students with disabilities.

• VSAI Festival:  Every year the South Central District celebrates the arts and invites students with disabilities to experience many forms of art. The goal of this festival is to make the arts more accessible, provide teachers with resources, and provide students with a positive learning experience.  Every year, the festival alternates between a location in Columbus and a remote location in Region 9.
