Posted 7/22/10: 2011-12 SEASON CONCERT SELECTION. Six members of the GCCCA Board will be traveling to Nashville, TN, at the end of July to participate in a national conference of community concert associations and to view showcase performances by about 25 groups that could be invited to be on the GCCCA 2011-12 season roster. The board members pay all of their own expenses, except for the conference registration fees, which are absorbed by the Assocation. In early October, our representatives will report to the full GCCCA board and the board will then make its choices of concerts for the 2011-12 season.
	Posted 6/16/10: GRANTS. We are pleased to announce that the 2010-11 concert season will benefit once again from support by New Mexico Arts, a division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, and the National Endowment for the Arts. In addition, the Dallas Brass concert on May 11, 2011 will have support from WESTAF, the Western States Arts Federation; and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Posted 6/3/10: AUDIENCE SURVEY. We thank members of our audience who completed the survey at the last concert of the 2009-10 season. All of the season's concerts received high ratings, but the Daniel Rodriguez and Hunt Family Fiddlers concerts topped the list. The survey results will provide valuable input as the GCCCA Board selects the program for the 2011-12 season later this fall.
