We’re pleased to welcome two new part-time staff to Arts Upper Hunter. Haylee will take on the Visuaural program (RAF grant in partnership with Muswellbrook Regional Arts Centre and others across the region) while Jenny-Lee will manage the Alive In The Upper Hunter theatre program (Regional Touring grant in partnership with venues across our region). Introductions below!
We’re pleased to announce that Marina Lee Warner has rejoined AUH – she’s supporting the Muswellbrook Hospital Art Project and Dare 2B Deadly program – after leaving us early last year.
We are also sad to say au revoir to Suzannah Jones, whose three years have developed the Creative Valleys website, This Here Then Now museum activations, First Stories films, our tourism workshops, and oh so much more. Suzannah is still doing all kinds of splendid creative things and we wish her the best of luck!
