Visiting Artist Program

Longwood University’s Visiting Artist Program (VAP) features some of the most compelling professional and contemporary artists working today. VAP brings artists from around the country to Longwood to lead public lectures, critiques, workshops and conversations while contributing to Longwood's greater artistic community.

The goal of this program is to educate and foster a greater understanding of contemporary art and culture.

Past visiting artists have pulled from a variety of disciplines and have truly enriched the student experience.  

If you would like more information or would like to be considered as a Visiting Artist, please contact Lauren Rice at riceld@longwood.edu.
