Music Supervisors Update by Brad Van Patten

I hope your summer plans have been set and that you are able to take a few days for you to rejuvenate with friends and family. Couple of things I’d like to make you aware of as we transition into summer mode.

To support the growing number of arts leaders in the state, our next Music/Arts Supervisor seminar will be held in two different locations on two separate days. We will have a meeting in the southern part of the state with our partners at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts, followed by another meeting in the Northern California area. I will be sending updates as soon as they’re firmed up in the next couple of weeks.

I also want to mention my transition into retirement starting at the end of this month. I’m excited to serve our community for one more year and looking forward to your work and conversations as we continue to foster what could be a new renaissance in music education in the state of California. My new email is bvanpatt@ icloud.com. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or suggestions.
