The Family

Board member Christine Chapman’s eyes begin to sparkle when she talks about the HCA. Chapman recalls moving to Hopkinton in 2012 and feeling an immediate connection to HCA. Almost a decade later it is still a rock.

“It’s a place I believe in, with everything I have. It’s a source of emotional and spiritual respite and release, connection and community.”

Now teen daughter Celia “CeCe” continues to sing and play the piano and guitar while her young son Henry enjoys the visual arts, particularly painting. “The HCA has been a place of great healing for our little family of three.”

Like her children, Chapman is grateful for the friendships she has formed at HCA, particularly as a member of the Treblemakers Community Chorus and board of the HCA. Chapman’s business Education Station sponsors HCA’s Cabaret Open Mic.

“Treblemaker friends have been my music family… the board work has introduced me to people I respect and admire deeply and whom I consider some of my most impactful fellow creators and collaborators,” said Chapman.
