Our Story

Madeleine and Elizabeth, our co-founders, discovered their own artistic identities and developed confidence through dedication, training, and taking risks in their artistic pursuits. Their commitment to their artistic passions informs their interactions with the world around them. For Madeleine, dance became a means of forming meaningful connections and inspired her to push beyond her comfort zone, both in and out of class. For Elizabeth, music and songwriting became tools for expressing her emotions and connecting with others. Both came to recognize that through their journey of training, competing, and sharing their craft through performance, they had developed an extraordinary level of self-assurance. This realization led them to want to give back to the artistic community that had bestowed upon them so much. V4C’s name reflects the power of fine arts in building confidence and positively impacting the futures of children.
