Monterey County Gives! 2024

mcgives.com Monterey County GIVES! 2024 29 THE CARL CHERRY CENTER FOR THE ARTS IS AN ENORMOUS IDEA carlcherrycenter.org • 831-624-7491 • info@carlcherrycenter.org One Big idea deserves anOther We invite you to support the energetic role of art and literature as the year comes to a close. Throughout this season, we’ve been reflecting on how the arts have taught us to comprehend and perceive. More than just another lens through which to look, the arts have been a prism, a means to see more deeply. To look through the optics of art and literature is to flush from the deep undergrowth of the self some thought, feeling, comprehension, question or music you didn’t know was in you, or in the world. The arts instruct us how to relax; how to pay attention, not just to the notes but the silences amid the notes. This is true for discovering some newness of the emotions or uncovering new ideas---which is essentially the mission of the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts. That indeed is an enormous idea. Please join us!! “Untitled” by Sarah Klein Making a Difference Through Music!! OUR BIG IDEA: Our professional orchestra musicians mentor music students in the afternoon and perform with them in the evening for their families and the whole community in venues throughout the Salinas Valley — free of charge thanks to donors like you and McGives! www.montereycountypops.org
