Overview
CDCC is growing creative opportunities for Carleton students and Ottawa’s youth!
CDCC’s Youth Arts Camp is a developing initiative that brings young people together through engaging, hands-on experiences in visual arts, drama, movement, and music.
As part of CDCC’s expanding community programming, the camp offers an immersive, activity-filled experience where youth can explore creativity, develop confidence, build friendships, and discover new ways to express themselves.
We are raising funds to strengthen the camp’s foundation and support its continued growth. Contributions will help Carleton University students and recent graduates engage in meaningful experiential learning opportunities to work on hands-on arts delivery in the community as camp staff, provide essential arts materials and equipment, and offer subsidies during registration for families facing financial barriers.
Every contribution supports the growth of a sustainable program that connects Ottawa youth, Carleton University students, and the wider community through shared creative experiences.
The Background
CDCC’s goal is to build an inclusive, accessible program that supports self-expression, celebrates different perspectives, and creates meaningful connections between Ottawa youth, Carleton University students, and the wider community.
The Rollout
Donations will support three key priorities:
- Hands-on learning: Carleton students and recent graduates will have the invaluable opportunity to gain hands-on learning experience as camp staff delivering arts programming to community members.
- Arts Programming: Purchasing essential equipment and materials for engaging, creative activities.
- Accessible Participation: Offering subsidized registrations to help reduce financial barriers for families.
The Impact
Your support will help more young people participate in enriching arts experiences while creating valuable experiential learning opportunities for Carleton University students. By investing in the camp’s early growth, you are helping establish a sustainable program that fosters creativity, builds lasting connections, and contributes to a more vibrant and inclusive Ottawa community. Every contribution helps young people thrive through the arts at Carleton University…
