Experience
Executive Director
Nov 2008 — Present
My responsibilities include promoting knowledge and appreciation of the arts and humanities in Jefferson, Orange and Hardin Counties by providing financial assistance, publicity, administrative resources and advocacy to non-profit organizations.I seek and receive funds from state, county, cities, endowments, trusts, foundations, and corporate and individual sources to redistribute to eligible non-profits in the area. The annual budget for the past decade remains at the level of approximately serving a population of is managed through the usual media like website calendar announcements, social media sources like Facebook and Twitter, and newsletter and direct email blasts. But our organization also publishes a biannual tourism magazine called Off Ramp. It is a high quality publication seen side by side with big city advertising throughout the state. The Southeast Texas Arts Council is one of only two arts councils to publish such a magazine.I am responsible for assisting non-profit organizations with grant writing, board development, best practices associated with non-profit operations, and fund raising.It is also my responsibility to act as an advocate for their concerns with regard to state and local governing authorities.
