VanGo: Frequently Asked Questions What is VanGo? VanGo Mobile Museum is the mobile outreach program of the ArtHaus Foundation which brings a free museum field trip experience to Volusia, Brevard, Orange and Seminole county schools and to organizations serving special needs groups in Central Florida. VanGo offers access to original, contemporary art exhibits and multi-disciplinary art activities presented by Teaching Artist Sandy Fraser, MA, who has more than 20 years experience as an art therapist and art educator in clinical and educational settings. The only program of its kind in Florida, VanGo is cruising into Central Florida communities to educate thousands of children and adults a year in the visual arts and to inspire creative thinking everywhere! How does VanGo work? Teaching Artist Sandy Fraser brings VanGo to your school or facility with a van full of quality art works. Ms. Fraser displays the art on portable walls in a room at the site.

Visits last for a recommended time of 90 minutes (60 minutes minimum). How much does it cost? VanGo is FREE of charge to children who attend low-income schools in Central Florida and to after school programs, the Boys & Girls Club of Volusia & Flagler Counties, and to nonprofit organizations serving special needs groups in Central Florida communities.
