We are in the process of filing for official 501c3 status (non-profit organization). We have legal representation from Andy Shawber, and we have some new executive board members. Dave Carter is our financial manager (not sure of his official title). Joel Fariss is our second in command (also not sure of his official title) He has alot of experience in working with non-profits and is a freelance brand consultant. Natalie St. Martin has also agreed to be a part of our executive board. She is an amazingly gifted artist who is teaching art classes at Seattle Pacific University. I am so excited to have all of these amazing gifted leaders on board.
As far as Arts center goes, We still don't have a name, however the team is growing. David Lawrence expressed interest in helping out. I am planning on have a meeting with everyone interested sometime around the middle of may. This will give me time to have something to present, and an organized structure to communicate. I am really encouraged by the amount of vision, focus, and patience that God has been giving me in regards to this arts center. We are pretty far out from having a space, but I am still really excited to get to work on building something like this.
Just thought I'd drop a quick update. There will definetly be much more to come. stay tuned! as always feel free to drop me an email or leave a comment if you have any feedback, questions, encouragement, or advice. samueldavidhatch@gmail.com
