Buncie Lanners

Executive Director @Arts Association In Newton County

Covington, GA, US

As the Executive Director for over twenty years, I manage our annual budget, providing the funding and business management to impact over 100, people in an 8-county area east of Atlanta, using the arts to change lives. I lead our eight-member administrative team and 21-member artistic team as we provide accessible, affordable and regionally recognized arts education and training as well as an annual arts series with concerts, performances with visiting artists, productions, camps, in-school residency performances, and free community concerts, all subsidized by a respected corporate sponsorship program. I direct development, strategic and financial planning, marketing and community impact, artistic vision, as well as program development and administration through oversight of our Young Artists Programs, serving students annually: Covington Regional Company and School, Oxford Singers, Oxford Acting Company, Newton County Youth Strings, Musical Theatre Camp, Acting Camp, and The Newton County Community Band (for the young and young-at-heart).
