Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History

C3 (Creative Community Committee) is a group of diverse representatives from Santa Cruz County. The MAH has created a leadership network for creative, action-oriented people who want to build a stronger, more connected Santa Cruz. 

In 2017, C3 worked together to create, Lost Childhoods, an art exhibition about foster youth, made with foster youth. The exhibition shared stories from local foster youth and invited our community to take action.

In 2018-2019, C3 will help develop an exhibition about seniors facing increasing social isolation in Santa Cruz County. We’ll create this project through participatory brainstorming sessions that emphasize creative approaches to working together and dreaming up a better future for Santa Cruz County. 

Care from the Heart is proud to supporter of the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History's C3 organization in their effort to put on this exhibit which will open to the public April 5th 2019 through September 22nd 2019.
