Perform-a-thon a-comin’
Students Raise Support in Concert
Each Spring CMC participants of all ages show their proud accomplishments in public through recitals and concerts at the Center. Now we’ll all be able to give more than applause for their efforts. In the 2013 Perform-a-thon, audience members, family members, other friends, and the general public will be able to make a donation towards each specific concert & recital. Revenue will go to support CMC’s need-based scholarship program. This event replaces the Practice-a-thon of past years. Stay tuned!
In Memoriam
CMC Honors Long-Time CMC Supporter
John Gray (1919-2012) and his wife Elizabeth (Betty) Gray were there for CMC from the beginning. The first non-profit board met at their home, their children studied music at the Center, and they gave significant time and money to help CMC grow and thrive. CMC will dedicate the annual Honors and Awards Concert in loving memory of John and Betty Gray.
