The CCA:
a collective project
A citizen initiative
The sale of All Saints Church in 2020 by the Anglican diocese was the catalyst for this citizen initiative. The Abercorn Cultural Center was legally incorporated in November 2020 as a non-profit organization (NPO).
Initially formed by 12 citizens, the core group quickly expanded and now has 18 founding contributing members. The founding members of the CCA continue to invite other village citizens to join them in ensuring the preservation of this heritage property and promoting cultural vitality within the community. Please feel free to join us.
CCA Team
The CA team has 18 founding members, from whom the seven members of the Board of Directors are chosen and elected for a two-year term.
The CCA team also relies on indispensable volunteers who support the smooth running of activities.

Activities
After acquiring the church in 2020, several cultural events and activities were organized, despite the pandemic, which weighed heavily on the launch of these initiatives.
Over the years, the former All Saints Church has hosted concerts, exhibitions, performing arts workshops, Christmas markets, open houses, and community activities.
