Center for Creative Education | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Center for Creative Education (CCE) whose mission is to create a better world by nurturing and empowering youth and community through the arts, is located in midtown-Kingston NY and Beacon NY, and in school districts throughout the Huson Valley. From CCE: "CCE is home to three award winning youth dance ensembles and to the Percussion Orchestra of Kingston. The quality of our programming is evidenced by garnering top awards at the National Spirit Dance Competition (2006 and 2010) and the grand prizes in all categories at the recent National Dance Awards in Albany. In addition, our groups have won first prizes at the Apollo Theater in Harlem and on BET’s dance program 106th and Park. We perform widely with these ensembles and have been featured at the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, West Point, the Bardavon Opera House and the United Nations among many other venues."
"Our programs use the arts to teach basic life skills such as persistence, teamwork, discipline, focus and mastery. We place a strong emphasis on having a healthy mind and a healthy body and the importance of education as a path to a better life."
