About Us
Hidden Treasures launched in 1998 offering music and arts & crafts lessons to 30 students. Today, 110 adults with mild to moderate disabilities are enrolled in eight arts education programs.
The program's roots can be traced to early 1990s when Lucille McCarthy, then a direct care worker at Community Living Corp., noticed a fascination with music among consumers. She began playing tapes to a small group and asked them to sing along. "They were shy and sometimes frightened, but we persevered," recalls Lucille. "I decided to put on a show." After a few performances, Lucille became convinced they should formalize the program and Hidden Treasures debuted to rave reviews. "Our students have an unlimited potential that needs to be tappped into. We all have hidden treasures. They just need to be nurtured."
