Visual and Performing Arts Education Minor

Visual and Performing Arts Education
Affiliated Minor

The mission of VAPAE is to expose UCLA undergraduates to the theories and practices of arts education. VAPAE provides UCLA students experiential opportunities to bring culturally equitable and inclusive arts education into schools and communities throughout Los Angeles. VAPAE builds and shares knowledge to highlight the importance of arts education in a diverse society.

VAPAE believes that the arts and arts education are transformational for both individuals and society as a whole, and should be part of every child’s complete education, regardless of zip code or circumstance. VAPAE equips UCLA undergraduate students with the tools to cultivate civic and community engagement through high quality arts education, building bridges between UCLA Teaching Artists and the surrounding Los Angeles community.

Note: Advising for the VAPAE minor is provided by the School of the Arts and Architecture. Please contact the VAPAE minor department directly if you have any questions about this program or any of the Arts Education courses.
