The Visiting Artists and Scholars Program aims to enhance the student experience at CCA by bringing artists and scholars whose work focuses on issues related to the arts, education, and community to join the campus for yearlong residencies.
In addition to teaching courses to CCA students, visiting artists and scholars collaborate with their communities to create special projects and events that serve both the campus community and the diverse populations of the Bay Area.
