Arts in the Community: CAAPA

Terri Allen, Executive Director of the Coalition for African Americans in the Performing Arts (CAAPA) and its co-founder Pamela Simonson (with brother Victor Simonson)  drop in on Arts Across America to discuss the role of CAAPA in the community as it strives to "bring color to the classics."  This year marks the 10th Anniversary of the Washington, D. C. area organization, which will kick off the festivities with its Melody of Art Reception on September 17 at The Atlas Performing Arts Center.
