Holly Fair Vendors! We're looking for vendors for our annual Holly Fair – the oldest crafts fair in Cambridge, and a Cambridge Center Tradition! Holly Fair will be December 12 & 13, 2009. E-mail us for more information!
Susan joined the Center as our new Executive Director at the end of the summer of 2009. She has been active in the local cultural scene for nearly three decades, including a ten-year stint as the Director of the Boston Center for the Arts and five years in Boston City Hall, as Director of Economic Development for the Boston Redevelopment and then as Director of the Mayor's Office of Arts, Tourism and Special Events.
Kadri's been with us for 30 years running. She currently manages the financial office. The secret to her longterm relationship with CCAE? "I like all the people i work with, the people i have contact with: staff, faculty, the board. I like the variety of the work, too."
Will has grown through the ranks at CCAE. He started as a part-time events person, then took over CCAE's public relations and most recently has been focusing on advancement issues. He loves to write thank you cards and sing.
Michael oversees the production of our catalog and the administration of our classes and programs.
Scott keeps the technical systems up and running, and is often running himself between our 3 buildings as issues arise.
Paul keeps our historic buildings together and running. Our resident poker player, you'll often see him around the building, calmly handling the business of the day.
Malene helps register students for classes. "I like the homey feeling that everybody gets along here; it's like a home away from home."
Music she's currently listening to: "an R&B and hip hop mix."
Obi runs the registration office. You'll often see her smiling face in the office or at the front desk when you walk through our door. "I like keeping our students happy. When people leave here it's my job to make sure they're smiling and satisfied."
Kevin oversees our customer service with Obi. "CCAE provides an opportunity for low cost high quality educational opportunites getting to work with really good people and interesting faculty, it's a way to keep adult education affordable."
Paula programs our fine arts, crafts, food, wine, travel, and homes & garden courses, plus our Thursday lecture series. She also plans our art gallery exhibits and produces special literary and educational events. As a reader, writer, artist, food and gardening enthusiast, obsessive wall painter, lover of animals, and more, the center's diverse learning opportunities suit her many interests. She is also an avid singer, but only alone in her car, so nobody has actually ever heard her sing.
Jerome manages the finances with Kadri and is a self-described hated figure in the house. "I have to be a jerk about the details. But CCAE has an openness in the environment that lets people just be themselves, and flourish."
Charlotte oversees the literature and writing, ESL and languages program, and organization of older students, and more.
Elizabeth handles all marketing - e-mail, social networking, advertising, and much more with her busy schedule. In her spare time, she's building her photography business - a skill she fine tuned at the Cambridge Center! Visit her website here. Got an idea for a blog item? She'd love to hear it! email her at estewart@ccae.org!
