A Long Island organization that's been around for more than five decades is using art to change lives.
The VCW is a performance arts organization whose motto is academic motivation through the arts. It's been around for 54 years.
There are three divisions: dance, vocal and charm and etiquette.
The business had to come up with new ideas to get through the pandemic and was able to keep going.
The owner says tuition rates are low so it's an affordable way to enjoy the performing arts. She says it's gratifying to see the smiles on all the kids' faces.
