Canyon Crest Academy Foundation Gala

Over the past ten years, Canyon Crest Academy Foundation’s hallmark of success has been its willingness to embrace change, push boundaries, and shatter paradigms in order to achieve record-breaking and award-winning academic, athletic, and artistic goals. In the spirit of CCA, the students, staff, and faculty are joining with the CCA Foundation to host a different kind of gala. On May 16, at 5:30pm, Across the Universe: A Tribute to the Beatles, will be a musical, theatrical, and artistic extravaganza featuring all seven Envision Visual Arts disciplines of dance, theater, vocal and instrumental music, cinema, visual arts, and humanities. Students are involved in all levels of planning and execution for the event, and CCA’s own cafe, the Nest, will play a role in creating the menu and preparing a portion of the food for the event.
