Auditory Artists
Singer Songwriters
"From my first interactions with VALA, I’ve gained a feeling of support for my songwriting and performance, a sense of artistic community, and an opportunity to form relationships with other artists that I might not have met in any other way. Penny has always set the tone by bringing people together, that they might collaborate and witness one another’s work – and then people pick up that tone and carry it forward. VALA has consistently showcased and championed young artists, up-and-coming artists, overlooked artists, and artists who might otherwise be marginalized in some way. Cross-pollination has taken place from poets and other writers to musicians and songwriters to visual artists, and even through the pandemic VALA has continued to bring artists together online for self-expression and community."
