CCMM’s Programs
CCMM’s programs aim to:
- increase understanding and respect for cultural diversity
- develop students’ cultural competence
- support and enhance classroom learning
CCMM-in-Schools
The CCMM-in-Schools program brings a unique cross-cultural museum experience directly into participating Los Angeles-area schools. With a collection of more than 3,000 international artifacts and art objects, CCMM introduces students to the sights, sounds, smell, taste, and feel of world cultures.
Connecting Cultures Online
CCMM thinks everyone should be able to explore the wonders of the world. With thematic videos, 3-dimensional artifact models, built-in activities and assessments, and tons of extra resources, Connecting Cultures Online seamlessly enhances students’ learning and develops cross-cultural appreciation.
What in the World?
Join the CCMM team on a journey around the world, featuring CCMM’s team, special guests, new friends, and artifacts from CCMM’s own collection! This series of short videos explores cultures, customs, and concepts – from traditional drinks to games, from love to holidays.
Culture Kits
Coming Soon!
CCMM’s Culture Kits spark curiosity and appreciation for the world’s cultures with specially curated projects and crafts. With a variety of activities appropriate for kids and adults alike, CCMM’s Culture Kits activate the explorer in all of us!
