Final days of summer.
About MCMAA
In May of 2005, soon after the arrival of a new Charles Walter piano at Nederland Community Presbyterian Church,
the Session of the church created a task force for the purpose of designing a program for its best use. That task force has become known as the Mountain Community Music & Arts Association, with membership from the wider Nederland and mountain neighborhood.
As our vision has expanded we have grown to encompass the range of artistic and creative expression in our mountain community, including these days the graphic and film arts, and perhaps into the future the worlds of dance and movement arts.
At the same time, we are coming to recognize that of all the activities we support, perhaps none is as important as our role as a focal point around which the community of artists in our midst can gravitate, find expression, explore new worlds, experience the power of togetherness in a world of solitary creativity.
The Vision
The arts and religious faith have always been closely related. Art has the power to move the human spirit, reminding us of the transcendence of the Ulimate Power in the Universe. As light overcomes darkness, goodness and beauty have the power to overcome evil.
In times like these, perhaps it is more important than ever to step forward and assume some responsibility for acting.
If you live in the Indian Peaks mountain community and have a similar vison, and if you would enjoy working with the MCMAA steering committee to plan future concerts, exhibits and events, you are invited to join us.
