The Heartland Creative Community Association is a community organization formed in 1973 from earlier efforts in El Cajon, California to promote cultural growth, connectedness and programming in East San Diego County. Initial activities were sponsored jointly with the Women’s Committee of the Grossmont Community Concert Association and the Grossmont College’s Office of Community Service. The Association worked in the fields of the arts, the humanities and public service to promote greater participation in and contributions to all those people-influenced areas. The association continued a wide range of community-based cultural activities until it a proposed reorganization was proposed at a meeting on April 20. 1987. The collection concludes with a final membership meeting program from April 23, 1988.
