Vermont African-American/African Diaspora Artists Network (VAAADAN)
Welcome! The Clemmons Family Farm joyfully collaborates with, coordinates, and lifts up a growing network of Vermont artists who self-identify as being people whose cultural heritage is of the African diaspora (e.g. African-American culture, African cultures, Afro-Latino cultures). There are currently more than 300 members registered in our collaborating artist network. This work is part of our three-part mission that includes empowering a growing network of Vermont's Black artists and African diaspora culture bearers with opportunities for professional development, advocacy, visibility, networking, paid engagements, collective healing, and a safe haven for creativity that helps them to thrive.
About the artists: Our network of collaborating artists includes musicians, singers, poets, spoken word artists, hip hop artists, DJs, dancers, hair braiders, painters, illustraters, photographers, videographers, film editors, graphic designers, comedians, actors and more! All of them are Vermont residents and have been vetted by the Clemmons Family Farm.
If you are an artist who lives in Vermont and who self-identifies as Black, African-American and/or of the African diaspora, please scroll down to fill out the registration form below and join our network!

Clemmons Family Farm's opportunities for Vermont's artists of African descent are funded in part through grants from Artplace America, Bay and Paul Foundation, Haymarket Foundation, Nellie Mae Foundation, Vermont Arts Council, Vermont Humanities Council, and the donations of a number of Vermont businesses and the general public.
