ORGAN COMMITTEE

The Organ Committee of CUCC was formed in support of the incredible Glatter-Goetz/Rosales Organ in our Sanctuary.  The Committee organizes many annual fundraisers to support the maintenance of this instrument as well as a yearly Organ Concert Series. The 2017-2018 season marked the 20th anniversary of the organ!
