We are growing a community of music through choral and musical instruction for singers in grades 1-12 in East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. Our Mission
It is the mission of the Mountain Empire Children's Choral Academy (MECCA) to enrich the lives of youth (1st through 12th grade) in the region through a program of vocal music education, and through the study and performance of the world's great choral literature as well as the music of America and our Appalachian region.
