After a regional and national search, First City Art Center is excited to announce that the position of Executive Director was filled in mid-February. We want to welcome Meredith Doyen as our new Executive Director. Meredith studied Landscape Architecture at University of Georgia, and then completed her Masters Degree at Iowa State in Community and Regional Planning. Doyen most recently worked as the Executive Director for the Island Community Center on Fishers Island, New York. While in this position, she was instrumental in fund raising, organizing, and managing the community center. “Meredith will be bringing these skills to First City Art Center to further advance our mission and strategic plan,” says FCA Board President Michael Conrad. “We have the good fortune of her recent relocation to Pensacola Beach!” “I am so happy to be able to combine so many of my favorite things into one job. With this job I am able to participate in the art world while working on community building, design and fundraising.” says Doyen. “I look forward to the growth of the First City Art Center and am so excited to be a part of it.”
