CMC Instructors & Students Connect
03/23/2020
While CMC is closed due to local, state and national responses to the recent COVID-19 outbreak, we are offering this list of CMC instructors who have opted in to providing their contact information and other data.
This information will be updated periodically. If you do not see the instructor you are looking for, check back the next day.
If you choose to set up internet lessons or other services from one or more of these instructors, note that it is not affiliated with CMC, PP&R or the City, and we assume no responsibility.
For information on PP&R closures, including CMC, please see: portlandoregon.gov/parks/covid-19
