CAC Programs


The Community Art Center offers two complimentary programs: the School Age Child Care Program (SACC), ages 5-12, and the Teen Media Program (TMP), ages 13-19. SACC offers classes in visual, performing, computer, and media arts. The TMP focuses on giving teens the opportunity to explore self-expression and new avenues of thought through a media arts curriculum. Our signature public event is the 11-year-old "Do It Your Damn Self!" National Youth Video and Film Festival, the oldest youth-created film festival in the nation. We have a strong record of retaining youth in art programs over several years, even over lifetimes, with many returning as staff, parents, and board members.
