At CCACC Academy, we are preparing for an exciting summer and have put together an outstanding lineup of camps and have added more camps to meet the suggestions parents have communicated as camps they would be interested in attending.

 

This Series we call “Did you Know” is to bring awareness to the camp suggested and the excellent instructors teaching them. 

 

Did you know that Hanna-Barbera Productions is a studio that Created the Flintstones, Jetsons, and many other popular cartoons that heavily influenced many of the current famous cartoons of today? Even studios like Pixar Animations. Our summer camp art instructor Jeanette Harris has participated in a Pixar Work Shop: https://jenetteharris.myportfolio.com/collaborations
