The Children Learning Ctr/Ccbc/Essex

Partypix DJ LLC has had the absolute pleasure of working with Delise White and the Center for Business Innovation and Trades at CCBC, and the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. Delise is the engine that makes everything happen – she coordinates events, vendors, logistics, and communication, and somehow keeps every moving part on track with professionalism and grace. Her ability to “do everything under the sun” for this department is not an exaggeration; she is the kind of organizer every small business hopes to partner with. The Center, led by Mr. Sullivan, is a true gift to small businesses in our community. They are not just a name on a building – they show up, provide real support, and create opportunities for growth through events, workshops, and creative collaborations. Their fundraising efforts directly fuel programs that help entrepreneurs, creators, and service providers like us access resources, visibility, and connections that would be difficult to find elsewhere. From our experience, Delise and Mr. Sullivan go above and beyond to make sure everyone involved feels valued, seen, and supported. They are thoughtful about including small businesses, giving us space to showcase what we do, and ensuring events are well‑organized and well‑attended. When you support their fundraising, you are not just giving to an institution – you are investing in a network that lifts up local businesses and strengthens the entire community. Partypix DJ LLC proudly and wholeheartedly recommends supporting Delise White and the Center for Business Innovation and Trades at CCBC. Their work matters, their impact is real, and your contribution will help them continue creating opportunities, events, and programs that change lives and grow small businesses.

Indigenous Peoples Day event. Great time and one-on-one conversations greatly enjoyed.

I wish I could give zero stars! Veterans Services is TRASH all of the staff needs to be replaced IMMEDIATELY, especially Keith Defontes! He's very slow with EVERYTHING! It's terrible how long it takes him to do HIS job. He's no help and someone needs to look into what he's doing with his time at work. He NEVER answers the phone.

Terrible graduation ceremony. Too crowded. Compacted thousands of graduates in one day. Why do you have to do that? Elderly people were walking very far...they have no choice, the school has limited rides to assist. Terrible experience ! ! ! Disappointing. Please don't torture people like that. Very bad experience today.
