On May 10th, CAA celebrated its annual Spring Art Party in Kendall Square. We're so grateful to all who could join us in celebrating our community of artists.

Shout out to our sponsors, including BioMed Realty for providing space for the event!

Michael Bobbitt, Executive Director of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, joined us for the evening, and helped us to honor our Volunteers of the Year - Angela Krieg and Mark O'Grady - and three new Lifetime Members - Veda Daly, Janice Corkin Rudolf, and Brenda Steinberg!

And, we presented a total of $5,000 in fund to the first grantees from CAA's new Emergency Fund for Visual Artists:

• Alex Blaisdell
• Anna Fubini
• Ryan Horton
• Rania Abdalla Kadafour
• Soyoung Kim
• Anastasia Sierra
• Azadeh Tajpour

Gratitude to Mark Ostow for capturing the evening. You can see the full gallery of photos here.

We still need to raise $15,000 to support CAA's operations through the end of our fiscal year. Can you make a gift to support this goal? Please click the link below to make a donation if you are able.
