Arts and Letters

The Arts and Letters Commission serves to develop and utilize the resources of both Monmouth County Alumnae Chapter and the community to support and advance creative and performing arts that reflect the African-American Experience. The Committee coordinates the annual Music! Music! Music! Program which serves as a platform for the presentation of scholarships by Educational Development. Additionally, in 2006, the committee addressed the need for increased emphasis on Arts in the Middle Schools. From this, DREAMS (Deltas Reiinforcing the Existence of Art in the Middle Schools) was born.

For nearly 26 years, MCAC's Arts and Letters Commission has sponsored an annual activity which showcases talented youth and recognizes area High School graduating seniors. Focusing on students from elementary through high school, the chapter encourages their success in the Arts by expanding their opportunity for exposure. This cultural activity builds self-esteem for its participants while providing family-centered entertainment for the community. MCAC's Music! Music! Music! Program was initially titled by our late beloved Soror, Ivery O. Wilson.

The Arts and Letters Commission continues to stimulate interests and serves as an educational strategy in areas of arts and letters; offering the opportunity to expand interests in and appreciation for the Visual and Performing Arts.
