Mission

The Neah-Kah-Nie Coast Art and Music Cultural Foundation (NCAM) believes that everyone, including youth, deserves access to cultural expression in an engaged community through writing, music, arts, and cultural programs that reflect — and inspire — our rural community’s creativity, diversity, and connections with one another.

Initiatives

We are excited that our first initiative, the Rockaway Writers Rendezvous (RWR) is going into its third year. With the launch of NCAM, we are bringing the writing and music efforts together under one roof where we can expand to include initiatives for additional art forms.
