The Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts (MAC) is a multi-faceted non-profit organization that promotes the restoration, interpretation and cultural enrichment of greater Cape May for its residents and visitors. MAC offers a year-round calendar of tours and special events that serves more than 380,000 people each year. Through its sponsorship of cultural and heritage tourism, MAC has helped transform Cape May from a "summer only" beach resort to the country's leading Victorian theme destination.
MAC's educational programs, either in person or by distance learning, are all presented by Museum Educators who are are experienced interpreters specially trained to work with students and community groups. Many are also Living History Interpreters who are trained to perform in character, as costumed Victorian personages.
MAC's programs are coordinated with many of New Jersey 's Core Curriculum Standards, particularly in the areas of Social Studies, Language Arts and visual and performing arts. A detailed correlation of each program with these standards is available.
