A professional network association of Catholic and other Christian producers, publishers, artists, authors, and sponsors involved in performance and media development, production, publishing, and distribution.
PURPOSE
CPPAA is an informal network of Catholic and other Christian media professionals who get together occasionally to share their projects, both real and proposed. The goal is to stimulate ideas, create friendships, and find partners -- for the sake of Global Evangelization. The organization had its beginning in 2004 when 8 video producers in S.E. Michigan met together for the first time and spent an evening of "Show and Tell."
