NCW Arts is proud to announce the appointment of Callie Baker as its new part-time Executive Director. Baker brings with her a deep commitment to the regional arts community and a strong track record of leadership, currently serving as Executive Director of Leavenworth’s Village Art in the Park, a role she has held for the past five years. As executive director of Village Art in the Park, I developed a deep love and dedication to the arts community, and I’m excited to bring that same passion to support and celebrate artists across North Central Washington,” said Baker.
The NCW Arts Alliance also welcomes three new members to its Board of Directors. Thom Kokenge, who recently
completed a four-month tenure as interim Executive Director, rejoins the board with deep knowledge of the organization’s mission and operations. Meg Sanders, an original member of the founding steering committee and NCW Arts’ first Executive Director, returns to help guide the organization into its next chapter. Rounding out the new additions is local artist and musician Brian Ohme, whose community-centered perspective brings fresh energy to the board.
These additions mark a dynamic new phase for the NCW Arts Alliance, reinforcing its mission to connect and support artists and arts organizations throughout North Central Washington. To find out more visit ncwarts. org.
