Central California Alliance for the Preservation of Mariachi (CCAPM)—PortervilleCCAPM's participation in ACTA 's Traditional Arts Development Program will support consultancies by renowned musician Natividad Cano and Juan Morales to develop plans for Artistic Development workshops for the Honors Mariachi Program. Through this program, honors students from throughout the Central Valley will engage with master artists in Mariachi Traditional arts to learn from personal experiences of masters of the caliber of Nati Cano, Miguel Martinez, and Heriberto Molina. Sr. Nati Cano and Sr. Juan Morales will plan the class content, class materials, music, preparation, and specific outcomes expected of students, as well as, documentation and preservation of workshop materials. The Central California Alliance for the Preservation of Mariachi was founded in 2002 to address the need to document and preserve the traditional style of mariachi music, and to record, transcribe, and preserve the stories of Mariachi musicians in the United States, California and the Central Valley. CCAPM now actively works in three major program areas, Honors Mariachi Music Program, Teacher Capacity Building, and Heritage and Cultural Preservation.
