BDPA & VMAPA: The Future Starts NOW – Our Roadmap to 2022
For more than 60 years, BD Performing Arts and Vanguard Music and Performing Arts have lived by the core values of enriching lives by providing opportunities for excellence in the performing arts. These steadfast values have guided both organizations well and we believe have continued to provide us a clear and future-focused vision as we have had to make key decisions that will impact the next 18 months in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.
