| About CCM |
CCM RECEIVES HIGH PRAISE! The National Endowment for the Arts awards new grant. It is with great pleasure that we announce that CCM has been awarded a new and prestigious federal grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) in the "Challenge America" category! This is a HUGE honor for CCM. Rarely are organizations awarded grants from the NEA on their first request. Also, an NEA grant award reflects the highest NATIONAL levels of respect for the artistic merit of the program receiving the award. This means that especially CCM's artistic director, but also the accompanists and other artists, the training faculty, and the choristers themselves are all being recognized for their excellence and achievements in the performing arts! The NEA awarded 366 "Challenge America" grants this year. CCM was 1 of only 4 Maryland organizations to be honored in this way, and the ONLY children's chorus nationwide! In fact, only 2 other awards went to organizations where the presenting artists are not adults: the Young Playwrights Theatre in Washington, DC (high school age) and The Children's Theatre Company and School in Minneapolis (again, mostly high school age). What an honor! Congratulations, CCM! Our musicians ROCK! Ramona Galey | |||||||||||
