Savannah Lane, Miss Virginia 2015

At the age of eight years old, Savannah was inspired by her sister Brianna’s work overcoming struggles with Autism and learning/coordination/social disabilities.  She created her platform “The Power of Performance” to use the arts as a method to cope and provide comfort. Since that young age, Savannah has continued to develop her program by producing individually tailored shows as a music therapy program in children’s hospitals, retirement centers, veterans organizations and more. Additionally, Savannah has created a strategy to show students how to utilize the arts as a method to encourage the “Three C’s” of confidence, compassion, and love of country.
