At CCAE, you can pursue your passions and interests in a welcoming community. Come to CCAE to learn with others who share your interests.
Every year, more than 11,000 adults take classes here. They are looking for knowledge offered in an affordable, social setting in a safe, non-competitive atmosphere. We offer:
- Extraordinary dedicated, knowledgeable teachers
- Experiential learning in small group classes
- Affordable course fees ensuring that classes have a mix of individuals from all walks of life
- A welcoming atmosphere that encourages connections, often shaping friendships that last a lifetime
Nestled in two historic buildings - the William Brattle House (1727) and the Blacksmith House (1808) - CCAE is steps away from the Harvard Square T station, bus lines, and parking garages. We offer homey classrooms inside and inviting public spaces outside. The Brattle House courtyard encourages casual meetings by students, visitors, and locals, while the café tables and umbrellas outside the Blacksmith House offer a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of Harvard Square.
