About

MISSION STATEMENT:
The members and board of the Community Action Alliance believe that art is important to the life of a community and nourishes human development. Its purposes are to accomplish the following:
  • Promote communication, cooperation, and support of the arts in the greater San Ramon area.
  • Serve as a liaison between the arts and businesses, government, and educational institutes.
  • Provide educational services for and about the arts.
  • Support and encourage creative arts groups among Ticos and Expats in the greater San Ramon area.

Our goals are the following:
  • To expand opportunities and facilitate access to creative inspiration and public presentation of the same.
  • To encourage a culture that values ingenuity and innovation.

Activities and Groups

Madcap Players

As a "readers theater" this group doesn't have to learn their lines for performances rather they get to use a script.  They have a great time doing it and the audiences love their performances. Join for a performance or permanently.  Email Judy Kerr if you are interested at akerr@msn.com

Coro Adultos de San Ramon (CAA Community Choir)

If you enjoy singing, join us!  We do 2 or 3 concerts a year including a Madrigal.  Wide variety of music from classic, to medieval to rock and roll. For more information, generally practice once a week. for more information. Contact Dianne Fischer at dfischercr@gmail.com.
