Gala
The annual CCA gala plays an essential role in providing need-based scholarships to talented students. Thanks to generous supporters, 79% of CCA students receive scholarships and financial aid—our goal is to ensure that cost is never a barrier to an excellent education for aspiring artists and designers.
