CPAC Spring Social Event

Lovely time at the Southside in Tremont. I met a few of the second cycle recipients, which was good, but the best part was catching up with my fellow visual arts fellows. It was good to hear we how everyone is doing and that we're having similar experiences. In this photo: Nancy McEntee (photography), Mackenzie Clevenger (dance), Mikaela Clark (dance), and Valerie Mayen (fashion design). Thanks, CPAC for organizing this.
