letter letter from from leslie leslie It’s hard to believe that it’s been a little over ten years since I started my journey at the Clifton Cultural Arts Center. Over the past decade, I’ve seen our little arts center change, grow, pivot, and remake itself many times over, always with the purpose-built community arts center — that you helped to create. There is so much happening at CCAC in the coming semester that I don’t even know where to begin. Join us for the Grand Opening: Open House on March 9, where you can explore the new building and sample a few classes. Or be HAIRitage by CCAC’s inaugural artist-in-residence, Erin Smith Glenn, followed by the New Woman Juried Exhibition where we’ll select our next artist-inFiber Sampler and Swing Foundations series of classes, learn about Open Studio I can’t begin to imagine what the next ten years have in store, but I hope you remember that CCAC’s new home — your new home — will always be a place for you to come express yourself. Welcome home!
P.S. We still need your help to fund the total construction costs of this incredible center for the arts. The Carol Ann & Ralph V. Haile, Jr. Foundation have issued a challenge and will match up to $100,000 in contributions made before January. When planning for your end-of-year giving, please consider making an additional gift to CCAC’s capital campaign by visiting cliftonculturalarts.org/match.
