As I sit here contemplating the end of another year, one that found me over-committed and negligent when it came to posting... it is with a sad heart that I reflect on one of those commitments and say goodbye to an organization near and dear to my heart.
The Community Arts Project (known as CAP) closed its doors in August of 2014, ending a 15 year run at Lake Norman.
Change is good. And change is inevitable. But too much change brought about the demise of a valuable resource.
I served on the Board of Directors for 3 years and know first hand how passionate all involved were, and how hard everyone worked to support the local art scene while bringing unique process-based art experiences to the community. A noticeable void will be left behind by its absence.
Goodbye, CAP. I and so many others will miss you.

Looking for ways to give back in 2015? Consider volunteering for an arts nonprofit. Most local organizations operate on a shoestring budget and would likely benefit from your time, talents, and gifts. Also, volunteer hours are critical when it comes to grant programs and other sources of funding that make operating possible. Plus, it feels good.
