West Virginia Public Broadcasting will be partnering with the West Virginia Department of Education to live stream Arts Alive.
A guiding goal of Arts Alive 2014 has been to expand the accessibility of this event to those who are not able to make the trip to Charleston and to produce a professional, archival copy for educational purposes.

The Arts Alive live stream will begin at 7:00 pm on Friday, April 4. 2014.
