CVA Legacy

CVA Legacy CVA Legacy is dedicated to continuing the legacy of the College of Visual Arts by connecting alumni and friends of the college. They are well marked.

For alumni, former faculty and staff, and supporters of the arts, CVA Action provides a connection to the history, culture, and legacy of the College of Visual Arts to the broader arts community through events and creative placemaking. Unlike other alumni networks that benefit from an active institution, CVA Action has a small, dedicated group of creative people that, in the wake of the closing of

the College of Visual Arts, volunteer their time and talents to the preservation of the artistic community in Saint Paul, MN. Transcripts from CVA are held at Bethany Lutheran College. Please see their website to request transcripts. https://blc.edu/academics/registrar/transcript-request/
There are special instructions fir CVA transcript requests.
