Of Course! 2022: A Gala Benefit Party
June 12, 2022
Of Course! - CCAE's major fundraiser - is a celebration of all that is best about CCAE!
We will feature irresistible mini-classes on topics that have caught the fancy of our best instructors. Then a brass band parade will escort us to The Charles Hotel ballroom, where the best restaurants, vintners, and brewers in Cambridge will provide us with intoxicating small bites and restorative beverages. Best of all, we will engage in the spirited conversation and sense of community that CCAE is famous for—all while raising a toast to Of Course! 2022 Honorary Chair Elizabeth Coxe.

This exhibition is free and open to the public. We invite students, teachers, family, friends, and the CCAE community to view it.
“Inclusive, fun approach to learning a difficult subject. Joan [Brunetta] had a lot of little things - declension songs, memorization aids, a great way to use flash cards - that were unique to her and made studying easier. There was just enough rigor, without being overwhelming. This class was a lot of fun. There was a great camaraderie among the students and with the teacher. We all learned a lot in a non-threatening context.”
Tim S., Salvete Romani: Latin Beginner Level 1
“Natalia [Slattery] did a great job! She demonstrates and explains what she is doing in a very clear way. She was well prepared and sent excellent material to everyone before the class. Now I can go back and review everything she covered. The class was an excellent combination of demonstration and hands-on experience. ”
Martha B., Digital Collage: Creating Composite Images in Adobe Photoshop
“Ploy [Khunisorn] is a great teacher! Her ability to cover a vast amount of information and help students create several dishes in their own kitchens, all in an absolutely choreographed, simple manner is amazing. She is always kind and supportive and answers all questions, making sure she loses no students along the way. It's a joy to share her kitchen!!”
Claudia W., Korean Kitchen
Jane [Katims]'s selection of stories is exciting, gratifying and sometimes challenging! It's like a mini-vacation and a lot of fun everytime we meet! I love it! Everyone was able to express themselves thoughtfully and respectfully through a variety of story subjects.”
Robert N., Self-Exploration Through Literature
