A Space created for
All Arts. All People. All Ages.
The Cultural Enrichment Center (CEC) offers a welcoming space for creative exploration and arts education, led by dedicated volunteer teaching artists. We provide diverse, affordable programs for all ages and skill levels, supporting both personal and community growth. Our evolving workshop catalog includes new and traditional experiences, with both in-person and virtual options to ensure accessibility.
CEC collaborates with local businesses and organizations to host festivals, community events, and live performances, giving members and supporters the opportunity to showcase their talents. Donations support our workshops, enabling everyone that is looking to find their passion to participate in meaningful arts activities.
Our workshops, led by volunteers and professionals, focus on enhancing communication, leadership, and creativity through engaging group activities. Programs include music appreciation, public speaking, acting, theater, art, and cultural enrichment workshops, all designed to prepare participants for success in a changing world. We encourage involvement in our workshops, artist development activities, career development initiatives, and our annual College Tours Programs.
The Center is committed to equipping our supporters to succeed in a rapidly changing global society.
THE
TEAM
music
The art of arranging sounds in time to produce a composition through the elements of melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre.
FINE arts
Fine art is developed primarily for aesthetics or beauty, distinguishing it from decorative art or applied art, which also has to serve some practical function, such as pottery or most metalwork.
dance
A performing art form consisting of sequences of movement, either improvised or purposefully selected. This movement has aesthetic and often symbolic value.
THEATRE
A branch of performing arts concerned with acting out stories in front of an audience, using a combination of speech, gesture, music, dance, sound, and spectacle.
Workshops
CEC’s music and arts workshops offer comprehensive training for young people considering a future in the arts. The curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, self-exploration, and technical growth.
Dedicated volunteer instructors at CEC help students master their own creative approaches, collaborate across artistic disciplines, and connect with leading cultural figures who inspire them to direct their own paths. Whether participants choose to attend college or jump straight into professional arts careers, they benefit from training and have many opportunities to showcase their work—through exhibitions, performances, publishing projects, and documentation of their journey.
Each year, CEC hosts events that celebrate the achievements of all participants, supporters, sponsors, and registered artists. These events double as fundraisers, supporting the purchase of workshop materials, which are often provided free of charge to participants.
