About CCAC

We are a nonprofit organization that formed over ten years ago. We have a strong mission geared to enrich and support the quality of life in Cattaraugus County by making artistic and cultural opportunities accessible to our citizens through classes, workshops and other services surrounding the artistic side of life. 

We’ve evolved today to be a major resource to the people of our community, offering art classes ranging from watercolor and pottery to interior design and ethic cooking. We host benefits, offer support for artists, and much more.
