We are thrilled and honored that Cool Classics! is one of 12 after-school programs selected as winners of the 2017 National Arts and Humanities Youth Program Awards!
We especially thank our wonderful volunteers and partners, our children, who inspire us daily, and their families, teachers and school administrators. We couldn’t do this without everyone who is involved with Cool Classics! This award belongs to all of us!
