Berkshire Cultural Resource Center Has a New Director, and a Slightly Different Tilt to the 2015 Downstreet Art Festival.
Michelle Daly, Program Coordinator at the Berkshire Cultural Resource Center, has a LOT on her plate. If there’s an event happening or a pop-up gallery to be overseen, chances are, Michelle is there to make sure it comes off without a hitch. The Downstreet Art Festival is no exception. Launching tonight in grand form, this season-long extravaganza pulls together every imaginable variety of performance, exhibition, and installation you can think of.
She described the subtle changes in the festival and the organization that are occurring now that Jennifer Crowell is the new director, and explains the increased focus in collaboration.
With a little luck, we’ll have Michelle back on the show regularly to bring us up to date on all the amazing activities surrounding the Festival.
When you see her out and about, make sure to let her know she rocks.
