From the Executive Director and Board Chair
Dear Friends and Supporters, Thank goodness (and with luck on our side!) it seems that we have weathered the worst of the pandemic and recovery is on our horizon. We have faced many challenges over our long history, and yet, CCAE continues to survive and thrive. Our long-standing mission of face-to-face, community-based learning remains intact.
The story of Fiscal Year 2022 is really a tale of the agility, talent, and perseverance of CCAE’s committed teachers and staff. Together we discovered that online learning could be an important and continuing part of our future curricula and an imperative ingredient in CCAE’s future!
At the same time—slowly but surely over the last year, and with protocols in place—we brought back in-person classes to the great delight of our students. We now host more classes in-person than online; our buildings again abuzz. Students are talking, enjoying CCAE’s courtyards and some of our newly renovated classrooms, and participating in the CCAE community once again.
CCAE’s stalwart supporters determined early on in this pandemic that our institution would withstand the challenge—as it has so many others. But, we are not out of the woods. By now you have learned that this year’s Annual Appeal asks you to participate in the “Year of Engagement,” a campaign that aims to secure CCAE’s mission to provide hands-on, experiential education to adults of all ages, learning side-by-side.
Your gifts help us preserve Cambridge Center for Adult Education, a community treasure that must endure for generations to come.
Thank you for your very valuable and continuing support of CCAE!
Linda Burton, Executive Director Christian Nolen, Chair, Board of Directors

INSTRUCTOR SPOTLIGHT
What is your relationship with the French language?
My “love affair” with French began in India when I was in 8th grade and we were given the option to choose between an Indian language and French. It was a time when the Indian economy was closed to any kind of foreign investment and we were also culturally quite isolated from foreign cultures. The idea of learning a foreign language offered a glimpse into a world that was fun, exciting, and exotic for a 13-year-old.
How did your interests transfer into your career path?
It turned out I was quite good at the language and continued to learn French in school and college for the next five years. While pursuing a degree in business and accounting, I studied at the Alliance Française in Mumbai and started becoming a fluent French speaker. I went on to complete my master’s degree in French with the idea of pursuing a career in teaching. I tremendously enjoyed teaching and simultaneously had the opportunity to work as an interpreter for assignments both locally and abroad.
How did you find your way to CCAE?
CCAE was a natural choice for me as I have taken classes here myself and it is also a local non-profit organization. I think that folks come to CCAE not just to learn but also to build connections and feel part of a community. They in turn inspire me by setting bold goals for themselves and showing that we can and must continue to learn at any age… That is also perhaps why I connect deeply with them, because I like to think of myself as a lifelong student of the French language and culture.
Can you share an anecdote that best embodies your experience at CCAE?
It is always rewarding to hear from students how much they enjoyed and benefited from my classes. This past spring, three students were finally able to travel to France. They took a photograph together in Paris and sent it to me with the caption: “See what a community you built!” That fills up my heart and is one of the nicest compliments I have ever received. I am grateful to CCAE for making it possible to build meaningful connections even in these incredibly hard times.

Online and In-Person Classes
AUGUST 1, 2021 – JULY 31, 2022
When Covid-19 eliminated the safety and accessibility of in-person classes, we introduced virtual learning. In the beginning, online classes drew students who, already part of our community, wanted to continue to gather despite the physical distance required by the pandemic. However, as time went on, these virtual offerings created an entirely new terrain for lifelong learning at CCAE. Online offerings began to draw the attention of students who would not have had access to our campus otherwise; students hailing from locations across the United States and beyond.
In the beginning we offered a small selection of in-person classes such as Lettura e conversazione in italiano with Pasquale Q. Tatò, Open Studios for Metalsmithing and Jewelry, and Storytelling as Performance. In-person enrollments grew a bit in Spring 2021, and Summer 2021. Today, we are pleased to be returning full-tilt to our mission of placebased, experiential learning. We were thrilled to offer over 170 in-person classes in Fall 2021! We project that number will only continue to grow as each term progresses. And, yet, we return to our Brattle Street classrooms with an expanded vision of what online learning can offer our community members. We look forward to navigating a landscape of in-person and virtual course offerings in CCAE’s future.
Cooking brings people together. We were determined to provide that point of connection for students, virtually, even as the pandemic kept us off-site.
“I enjoyed every aspect about this class. The information presented about the artists, artworks, movement, and history was all fascinating. I would highly recommend this class to anyone. I appreciate that CCAE offers courses on subjects like this, and has them available online.”

Learning Together Again
PROGRAMS AT CCAE
Food & Wine
Due to high demand, the Food & Wine department transitioned back to a predominantly in-person format. We also reintroduced the popular multiweek class, Basic Culinary Skill and Techniques, which sold out every term. In our Spring and Summer 2022 terms, our Wine, Beer, and Spirits department exceeded the numbers of pre-pandemic enrollment and revenue by a significant percentage. It is evident our community is eager to get back to mingling and socializing.
Business, Finance & Technology
The Business, Finance and Technology department brought on new computer science instructors over the year to provide sought-after classes on programming and coding.
ESL
While CCAE never stopped offering English as a Second Language classes, even during the height of the pandemic, Fall 2021 finally saw an increase in students. Thanks to the end of travel restrictions and the transition back to in-person classes, we welcomed students from all continents—and were happy to see “old” friends again.

World Languages
This department, the strongest regarding online classes, continued to offer 14 different languages in FY 22. Students who gathered for classes in-person, walked in German, celebrated Spring in Japanese, ventured into Brazilian Literature, discussed in Italian, sang in French, and signed in ASL.
Humanities
Humanities expand our knowledge of human cultures and help us understand what binds us and differentiates us from one another. Our humanities department continued to grow with exciting and enjoyable courses. Classes, guided by our expert instructors, ranged from Russian literature to the great classics of Jane Austin to James Joyce. Students challenged racism, and considered how peace is made by analyzing peace conferences throughout history.
Visual Arts & Crafts
In Fall 2021our art studios saw students, instructors, and models coming back. We introduced a number of new classes such as intaglio printmaking, glass jewelry, and life casting as well as rekindled our relationship with Cambridge Community Television to offer studio production classes. With all this, the sounds of building, painting, scraping, printing, sewing, and creativity could be heard once again throughout the halls.
Performing Arts
Our Performing Arts courses span a range of disciplines, including music, theater, and dance. This year we expanded our course offerings to reflect our students’ needs.
Life & Wellness
Life and Wellness classes are designed to teach students about the various aspects of health and fitness. We offered Yoga, Meditation, Tai Chi, as well as recreational activities such as Croquet and Soap Making. This year our students learned about the components and benefits of a healthy and balanced lifestyle and living life to its fullest.
Cambridge Center for Adult Education emphasizes the process of learning with experiential, place-based classes at its helm. Pictured above, CCAE students come together at every stage of adulthood to experiment with skills they’ve never tried and they often leave with a new friend, a better understanding of themselves, or an expanded view of the world.

CCAE SPECIAL EVENTS
Blacksmith House Poetry Series
One of the longest running poetry reading series in the country returned, with much enthusiasm, to in-person readings in the later part of FY 22. This iconic series, which has welcomed world-famous poets—from Elizabeth Bishop to Allen Ginsberg to Robert Lowell to Robert Pinsky— is considered one of the premiere platforms for both recognized and emerging poets to be heard. We are so grateful that CCAE has been able to host these extraordinary poetry readings for the last 50 years. We are especially delighted to be back in person for these readings as we get ready to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of BHPS in 2023.
The 14 BHPS evenings in this past season brought in many well-known poets as well as emerging poets—introduced on New Voices night. To see past recordings and for more information, visit ccae.org/blacksmithpoetry.
8 CAMBRIDGE CENTER FOR ADULT EDUCATION
In Fall of 2021 BHPS continued to welcome poets from far and wide albeit to a virtual stage over Zoom. Later, in Spring of 2022, the cycle began online but ended on a high-note, back on Brattle Street in Spiegel Auditorium.
Conversations on the Edge
Ever since March of 2020, Conversations on the Edge, a program initiated by members of CCAE’s Board of Directors, has looked a little different. Originally mounted in our Spiegel Auditorium, with occasional showcases in other venues across Cambridge, Conversations tackled pressing local, national, and global issues through dynamic discussions between Cambridge intellectuals. During the pandemic, CCAE continued to hold Conversations virtually and offered free attendance to the public.
A program highlight, this fiscal year, saw Ann St. Goar, CCAE supporter and friend, moderating a panel discussion on how psychedelic drugs can help us navigate mental illness and addiction. Convincing recent studies demonstrated how certain psychedelic substances can help relieve anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and fear of death for the terminally ill. Together we learned that new findings have profound implications for a field that, in recent decades, has seen few pharmacological advancements for the treatment of mental disorders.
Next fiscal year, Conversations on the Edge will be investigating the latest innovation in climate mediation: “The Emerald Tutu,” alongside partners at The Cambridge Club, Cambridge Community Foundation, and The Cambridge Public Library.

Haute Cuisine: The Art of Food
Haute Cuisine aimed to explore human interest and interaction with food—as both a source of nutrition and an abundant difference of opinion and taste. The show featured the work of over 20 CCAE students and teachers as well as a live demonstration by local confection artist Linda Khachadurian. The works varied just as much as our palates, exploring the visual delights of the things we eat and conveying the subtle or bold emotions food invokes.

Financial Status
FY 2022 was a year of re-emergence. Beginning with less than 25% in-person classes, we ended the year with over 70% in-person class offerings, resulting in 30% growth in overall tuition revenue. However, at the same time, federal government PPP loans ceased in FY 2021 and donations were down over 28% mainly due to the planned closing of our COVID-19 Relief Fund which had exceeded its lofty goals.
And, as we reopened our building to students and staff and increased our class offerings, our facilities costs, instructor costs, and other operating costs increased by 20%.
The resiliency of our students, staff, instructors, and community has allowed us to enter FY 2023 in a position of health, strength, and growth.

Catalogs
After moving to an exclusively virtual catalog during the height of the pandemic, our printed catalogs have returned! From August 2021 to July 2022, CCAE has printed and distributed over 12,000 copies to our students far and wide, including right here on the streets of Harvard Square.
Social Media
With the return of in-person class offerings came the resurgence of students on social media sharing their artistic endeavors, culinary creations, and new skills. Each week the CCAE platforms shared #TestimonialTuesday and #StudentShareSunday posts to further cultivate our online community of learners. In the new year of 2022, the marketing team began filming Instagram Reels as an additional way to show off CCAE’s classes, facilities, and community. These short videos have garnered over 170,000 views in seven months. Stay up to date by following us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram – and now TikTok!

Working with Our Neighbors
CCAE IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND BEYOND
CCAE strives to uphold its position as one of the oldest adult learning centers in the country — one that takes very seriously its active participation in the life of the community — giving back to organizational partners, instructors, and students in Harvard Square and beyond. Thanks to the dedication of CCAE staff, and community members working to strengthen our shared network, this fiscal year saw a partnership between Cambridge Center for Adult Education and Harvard University come into focus.
In November 2021, CCAE hosted an online English over Dessert class with Harvard University Housing’s, Graduate Commons. The goal was to provide graduate students and their families with relevant information about English learning, opportunities to get to know local communities, and of course, an introduction to CCAE—a welcoming place to learn. Later, in Spring of 2022, in partnership with Jane Unrue, Director of Harvard’s Scholars at Risk Program, CCAE made a commitment to provide scholarships to refugees pursuing research at Harvard University. Beginning right away we placed these students in our English language classes, guitar lessons, and more.
Thanks to a member of our Board of Directors, several years ago we formed a partnership with Prospect Hill Academy (PHA), a K-12 college preparatory public charter school located on three campuses in Somerville and Cambridge. PHA has nearly 1,150 students from diverse racial, ethnic, and economic backgrounds. 87% are people of color, nearly two-thirds have a low income, and approximately half come from homes where English is not the primary language spoken. Our ESL instructors, headed up by Fancesca Ferraris, continue to offer free classes to non-English speaking parents of students at PHA.
“This was the best writing class I ever took at CCAE. My writing and my desire to write improved markedly as a result of this class.”

During 2022, we were proud to partner with Lesley University’s Threshold Program, a post-secondary certificate program for collegeaged students with diverse learning, intellectual, and developmental challenges. For more than thirty-five years, this Lesley program has been helping students with disabilities navigate life with confidence. CCAE gave a presentation in the course Navigating Independent Living for students in their final year of the Program.
Cornucopia: An Intercultural Conversation about Gratitude was a free, open-to-the-public, online partnership event with the Universidade de Caxias do Sul (UCS) in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. For the second time, students from the Modern Languages Department, among them a lot of future English teachers, enjoyed the opportunity to engage with our CCAE community. Participants connected from near and far to reflect on Education, Future, Society, and Language Learning, in the week prior to Thanksgiving. In the more intimate setting of breakout rooms, the Brazilian students and CCAE students, instructors and staff members shared their experiences, lessons learned from the past year, and possible outlooks of the future post Covid. We ended this inspiring evening by sharing reflections on gratitude. This partnership was initiated by our CCAE ESL instructor Liz Ging and attended by CCAE community members all over the world. We are looking forward to the third edition of Cornucopia in 2022.
In the coming year we are eager to reignite our partnerships with Perkins School for the Blind and On the Rise, which were suspended during Fy 21 and Fy 22. In FY 22, we began discussion with Community Servings and anticipate working together again in the new year. We look forward, as well, to strengthening our partnership with St. Francis House, a Boston homeless shelter, which commits to rebuilding lives by providing refuge and pathways to stability for adults experiencing homelessness and poverty.

Looking to the Future…
TO CCAE DONORS, INSTRUCTORS, STUDENTS, AND FRIENDS
Fiscal Year 2022 turned out to be an extraordinary year for CCAE – one that demonstrated our resilience. We managed to survive the Covid-19 pandemic, despite conditions that closed down our campus and threatened the in-person, community-oriented nature of our mission. Swiftly, as we navigated an ever-changing reality, beginning in April 2020 we moved our offerings to Zoom and began to discover new students through online classes.
In 2022 we have been thrilled to re-open our doors and welcome back our loyal students with in-person classes. All the while, we continue to offer virtual classes to those who prefer to tune in from home.
Most importantly, thanks to the generous gifts from our good friends and donors like you, over the last two years we have kept our doors open! Indeed, our mission remains intact. Our talented staff proved nimble enough to keep our student base engaged, our instructors in place, and our donors willing to invest in CCAE — a valuable community resource for over 150 years.
We’re pleased to report that CCAE’s special in-person events are back this upcoming Spring, beginning with the 50th Anniversary of the Blacksmith House Poetry Series. As Spring turns to Summer, we can’t wait to see you for Dumplings, Of Course! This event, which will take place in our courtyard at 56 Brattle Street on June 8th, 2023, is a celebration of the storied tradition of stuffed pastry—part of every cuisine’s history ever since humans began to cook!
Together we ensure that CCAE survives. In the face of the most difficult circumstances, we remain deeply invested in the return of students, staff, and instructors to our buildings on Brattle Street.
“As a person with a full time job, I wanted something structured but also with an enjoyable community. Thank you for providing me with just that.”
