The Office of VSA and Accessibility at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts

The Kennedy Center’s Office of VSA and Accessibility provides accommodations to make all Kennedy Center facilities, performance and educational programs, workshops, lectures, festivals, exhibitions and events accessible to people with disabilities of all ages. VSA, the international organization on arts and disability, was founded more than 35 years ago by Ambassador Jean Kennedy Smith to provide arts and education opportunities for people with disabilities and increase access to the arts for all.

As one of the largest, busiest performing arts centers in the world, the Kennedy Center and its leadership have developed a broad spectrum of internship opportunities in the performing arts.
