After nearly a half century of the community occupying the turn of the century former Quaker Meetinghouse and School the CEC has finally been awarded the ownership of the building. Thanks to the efforts of the current and past administrations and boards, many supportive community members, and especially Councilwoman Blackwell and the Philadelphia City Council, the CEC now holds the deed to the building! The CEC is also celebrating the retirement of Executive Director Theresa (Ms. Terri) Shockley after nearly twenty years of service to the CEC. The Board along with the Producers Guild who partners with the CEC to present jazz at the center, invites the community to come celebrate both of these important milestones with a fundraising party filled with entertainment, food, and fun. The party is very important fundraising effort for the CEC that will help to insure that the center stays strong through this important transition.
The celebration will feature several jazz artists, dancers, and theatre artists who have performed at the CEC over the centers history. In addition to performances by some of the many artists who are part of the CEC family, there will be an awards ceremony to recognize some of the many community members whose contributions to the center have meant so much to the organization over the years. The CEC will honor the ongoing volunteer dedication of Judith Adamson and posthumously Randy Dalton for all that he did for the center.
