The mission of the Video Association is to promote an understanding of video as a creative medium and cultural force in our society, and to support and advance the work of Texas artists working in video and the electronic arts. Through its programs and information services, the Video Association educates and informs artists, students, educators, critics, video and film producers and an interested public to better understand, appreciate and evaluate the creative possibilities of the video medium.
