After extensive renovations, the Community Music Centers's expanded campus will celebrate with a ribbon cutting Feb. 21.
On an overcast morning last December, construction crews were still busy at the Community Music Center. The tang of fresh paint and the comforting smell of sawdust hung in the air as Executive Director Julie Steinberg, Program Director Sylvia Sherman and I carefully avoided extension cords and dodged canvas tarps while tromping up and down staircases, navigating around working crews.
“Three students were accepted into the SFJAZZ High School All Stars,” Sherman said, crediting bass star Marcus Shelby, a longtime CMC faculty member, with fostering a supportive classroom environment. “He gets students to mentor each other.” Renovations have made the campus fully accessible. The main entrance is now located at the southeast corner, where an ADA-accessible ramp leads to the front door. An elevator provides access to the reception/registration area and classes on the third floor, with ADA-accessible pathways throughout the campus. It’s also far more secure, while maintaining the historic building’s charm, “We used many of the original doors,” Steinberg said.
