CORTLAND ARTS
The Cultural Council of Cortland County
Culture:  Does "culture" bring to mind The Beatles,
Michelangelo? Jackson Pollack? Grandma Moses?
Jiffy much more!

The Cultural Council of Cortland County (C4) blends
music and drama - the performing arts; paintings,
photography and sculpture - the visual arts; and many
other arts including music composition, creative
writing, culinary arts and a wealth of artisan crafts.

If you believe that culture has a lasting significance in
our lives, which is meant to be shared by everyone,
you should be a member of C4.

Many of you may be joining using our mailed form.  If
so, many thanks!  You may also join by sending us
our
Online Membership Form.

As an added bonus for your membership, you also will
be able to tour another cultural artifact in our
community: the 1890 House Museum. Go as often as
you like!

We look forward to having you join C4! Thank you so
much for enriching the cultural life for all of us by
providing your support.

Sincerely,

David Beale, Executive Director
