about the 2008 Celebration of Leadership Event
The CBC Spouse Celebration of Leadership in the Fine Arts event traditionally
serves as the kick-off affair for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s
(CBCF) Annual Legislative Conference (ALC), a gathering that attracts
up to 20,000 people to the Washington, D.C. area each year. This event
recognizes the significant contributions of individuals in the Visual
and Performing Arts, as well as corporate leaders, former CBC Spouses,
and those citizens who have demonstrated leadership in the area of lifting
up and supporting young people and improving the general quality of life
for all people. The proceeds of this event are used to fund scholarship
programs in two areas, performing and visual arts. The students who have
been selected to win the scholarships are flown in from across the United
States to perform or exhibit their art works and to accept their respective
scholarship awards.
