The Board is pleased to announce

in the new position of Executive
Director, and she started in the
Gallery the first week of July.
Christina comes armed with an
impressive background. She

which will be particularly helpful in her new role with the
Gallery.
Christina has a Bachelor of Commerce (Marketing) degree

The Executive Director position is being funded by our three year

through donations and sponsorships.
In her first months, she will be working closely with Connie
Jacobs, our Administrator, and Margot Fawcett, President,
and the Board, to familiarize herself with the Gallery’s
operations. Christina looks forward to meeting the Gallery members and summer visitors.
