Second Annual Holiday at the PAC presented by Arts & Ideas and the CCC Foundation

Clatsop Community College Arts & Ideas and the CCC Foundation are pleased to present the Second Annual Holiday at the PAC on Friday, December 8 at 7 p.m. This benefit concert features the music programs of Clatsop County high schools as well as selected guitar students of CCC’s Dave Drury and other musically talented high school and CCC students. The revenues generated from the concert will be shared amongst the participating music programs and the Arts & Ideas Program.

Coming to the Performing Arts Center this year are Astoria High School and the Port City Singers, Seaside High School jazz band and jazz choir and the Warrenton High School Choir. Miss Clatsop County Kaya McGrath will also grace the stage.

CCC is dedicated to sharing the wonderful space of the PAC with the community, and we are thrilled to highlight these exceptional music programs as well as give students an opportunity to perform in this unique performance hall.

Please join us as we celebrate the gift of music and the beautiful facility that is the Performing Arts Center. It will surely put a smile on your face, get you into the holiday spirit, and you can enjoy some hot apple cider and cookies at the same time!

Also in the spirit of the holidays, members of CCC’s student government will be collecting canned and other non-perishable food items at the door as part of their holiday food drive. Guests are invited to share in the spirit of giving and bring food to donate. Children ages 12 and under who bring in two cans of food can attend the concert for free!

The CCC Arts & Ideas program encompasses a broad spectrum of cultural enrichment offerings that are presented in a setting of artistry and education, providing opportunities for creativity and learning for both artists and audiences alike.

The CCC Foundation is dedicated to supporting the College as it provides high quality education at an affordable price—providing educational opportunities that serve the community’s needs.

Tickets are $12 general; $5 students/seniors and free for children 12 and under who bring two cans of food. Tickets are available at the door one hour before performance time.

The Performing Arts Center is located on the corner of 16th and Franklin in Astoria.

If you are unable to attend the concert but would like to contribute, please contact Lenore Morrisson at (503) 338-2473 or Nadine Faith, Foundation Director at (503) 338-2306.
