The
mission of the Charles County Arts Alliance (CCAA)
is to stimulate, promote, encourage, and provide
recognition of the arts and the creative spirit.
Founded in 1987, the CCAA promotes ALL the arts in
Charles County: music, visual art, drama, dance and
literature.
The CCAA is the official arts council of Charles
County and is recognized as such by the Maryland
State Arts Council (MSAC), an agency of the
Department of Business and Economic Development (DBED)
of the State of Maryland. In this capacity, the
CCAA serves as the "umbrella" organization for the
arts community in Charles County. The CCAA promotes
Charles County arts organizations and individuals,
provides financial support to nonprofit
organizations and the schools through its annual
arts grant programs, sponsors the creation and
presentation of new, diverse cultural activities and
special events for the community, provides arts
scholarships, and ensures the Charles County's
underserved population, people with disabilities,
residents with limited income, minorities and senior
citizens have access to the arts.
The CCAA builds partnerships with local government,
the business community and the educational
community, in an effort to enhance the overall
quality of life for the citizens of Charles County.
The
Charles County Arts Alliance, Inc. is funded by
a grant from the Maryland
State Arts Council, an agency dedicated to
cultivating a vibrant cultural community where
the arts thrive. An agency of the Department of
Business & Economic Development, the MSAC
provides financial support and technical
assistance to non profit organizations, units of
government, colleges and universities for arts
activities. Funding for the Maryland State
Arts Council is also provided by the National
Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency,
which believes that a great nation deserves
great art. Further support of the CCAA
comes from the Charles
County Government, CCAA membership, and
by tax deductible donations. Thank you all!
