It is a cultural organization aimed to expose children on the mainland to the Virgin Islands and Caribbean culture, dance, arts and music.
VIASM has participated in several Carnival parades in several cities such as Miami, Houston, DC., Charleston, and also abroad in St. Thomas and St. John U.S. Virgin islands.
