I was fortunate to work for an art museum and a performing arts center before moving back to Idaho. The arts have been a major part of my life, and I wanted to continue my involvement. I have been so honored to serve on the Magic Valley Arts Council Board of Directors since 2017. I love being a part of this wonderful organization!
My favorite things about the MVAC are having the opportunity to meet many artists and art lovers from the area and providing a variety of opportunities for kids and adults to participate in the arts.
As a passionate artist, I am proud to serve as a board member of the Magic Valley Arts Council. My commitment to fostering creativity and supporting fellow artists in our community drives me to advocate for the arts. Together, we can enhance cultural experiences and inspire future generations through the transformative power of artistic expression.
A dear friend of mine introduced me to the MVAC. Arts have always been a passion of mine and I want to continue that by promoting and fostering the arts to everyone in our area.
I joined the Magic Valley Arts Council because art has always been a source of inspiration,expression and connection in my life. I believe in the mission to advocate for the arts and create a space where self-expression isn’t just seen—it’s celebrated. For me, it’s more than just supporting creativity; it’s about empowering people and fostering a sense of belonging that promotes both financial and social well-being.
What I love most is how the Council engages with artists of all ages and stages—from young dreamers just starting out to seasoned creatives sharing their wisdom. Being a board member gives me the opportunity to help bring these visions to life and support a community where Art is the heart in transforming lives. This work fills me with purpose and joy, and I’m so grateful to be part of something that matters so deeply
I have been on the Board of Directors for the Magic Valley Arts Council for eight years and I LOVE my job! I volunteer at as many of the events we sponsor that I can. I love the people that attend these events and I make sure that I talk to them about becoming a member and/or volunteering. Our board is a Working Board, and I am passionate about everything that we do!
I joined the Magic Valley Arts Council to help preserve and promote the arts in our community and do my best to ensure that the organization serves all aspects of our diverse population.
With a lifelong passion for the arts, I am committed to making creative expression accessible to everyone, recognizing its power to heal, connect, and inspire. The arts have not only been a source of joy for me but have also been a transformative force that has shaped and saved my life in countless ways.
Many years ago a couple of beloved local artists convinced me that I could be like them. That is when I became a member of the Full Moon Gallery and discovered I am an artist. From that front-row seat I observed how the Magic Valley Arts Council could benefit from my forty years of legal practice and community service, and volunteered to serve on the Board, hoping that my efforts will strengthen the impact of MVAC in our community.
I was invited to join the Magic Valley Arts Council Board of Directors as a representative from the north side of the valley. I am a native of Twin Falls now residing in Wendell.
I worked for the Times News and Ag Weekly for many years and also served as a Gooding County Commissioner. I am proud to be a part of the MVAC and I enjoy working with such a wonderful team to promote the arts in the Magic Valley.
As someone who believe that art is the lifeblood of a community, I knew exactly where I wanted to volunteer when I first moved to Idaho. The Magic Valley Arts Council plays a crucial role in making the arts visible and accessible in Southern Idaho, ensuring that our residents don’t have to travel long distances to experience visual, digital, performing, and literary arts. The impact of these efforts is evident in the growing attendance numbers at the Magic Valley Arts Council’s events. With the region’s expanding population, the demand for access to the arts has become an increasing priority. Being a part of these initiatives has made me feel truly involved in the community.
I joined the Magic Valley Arts Council to help raise awareness regarding the value of the arts, enhance the artistic quality of local arts activities in the valley, help bring diverse cultural and artistic awareness, and create resources that would enable local artists to flourish.
