Monterey County Gives! 2025

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 mcgives.com Monterey County GIVES! 2025 43
