Dear Friends...
There is so much happening at Cathedral Park Performing Arts Collective this month that we figure we'll keep our message brief. We are sure you will find something in this June edition of our "Studio to Stage" newsletter that will connect you deeper with the performing arts in our North Portland and surrounding community as spring term ends and summer term begins.
To all of our friends out there, and especially the students, parents, and teachers among you: happy (almost) summer! We wish you a peaceful winding down of the school year and safe travels near and far, wherever the season takes you.
Your CPPAC Directors,
Cristina & Audrey

New Performing Arts Family Camp
WHAT: Over the past 30-odd years, the families behind Caz have developed their one-of-a-kind, performing arts family camp at a site in Northern California. For the first time in the summer of 2018, they are expanding to host an additional week of Camp Caz in Washington State, allowing families in the Pacific Northwest to travel more easily to camp.
During this inaugural session of Caz Northwest, campers will enjoy a fabulous program produced by long-time Caz staff members mixed together with local artists who are new to Caz. They expect to host nearly as many staff members as there are camper families, creating lots of opportunity for interaction between campers and staff.
WHEN: July 1-7, 2018
WHERE: Sound View Camp and Retreat Center, Longbranch, Washington (2.5 hours from Portland, and 2 hours from Seattle).
