Our Story

Incorporated 5/14/2008

CCAC’s first goal was met through an organized art project coordinated through local elementary, middle and high schools in April, 2008 (Art Poster contest for full/partial scholarships) to the 2008 Kidz Summer Art Workshop which ran from 5/1-6/14, 2008.

5/25/2008 CCAC held an art festival at the Pineville Lake Park over Memorial Day weekend entitled “WAMY” (What Art Means to You) Art festival.  The festival was filled with poster displays of the finalists from the Children’s Poster Contest that was held at local area schools, working artists and vendors were on-hand showing their skills and wares, stage events/acts were memorable throughout the day to entertain the crowd, and children activities like t-shirt painting and demolition car painting kept all busy and entertained throughout the day.

CCAC’s held its first Art Show/Opening September 5, 2008 called World Treasures to showcase creative and expressive art by a diverse mix of children throughout Pineville/South Charlotte that attended the 2008 Kidz Summer Art Workshop.
