Dear Mike,
As our doors open this fall for our 65th year of community service, classes and performances, we are excited to share with you all that is new at CCAC.
We have a number of new programs for students of all ages and abilities, from fitness, health & wellness through dance to the Art of DJ'ing. We hope that you will experience these opportunities with us and see what the Arts can bring to your life!
CCAC is celebrating its 65th anniversary this season. In partnership with Kuumba Academy, also celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, our organizations will have many ways for you to become immersed in the Arts and our community. Please join us this season to celebrate our history, our progress and our bright future!
Have a blessed day,
H. Raye Jones Avery, Executive Director
