BOARD MEMBERS

  Leslie Foley – President

The performing arts are food for the soul.  The arts can take you around the world, learning about different cultures.  The performing arts are another way for our children to learn and to be able to express themselves.  The performing arts can turn a town into a community where people can meet up for a night of laughter or culture that can then open up discussions.  It energizes me to want to learn

  Ashley Thayer – Treasurer

I’ve always had an appreciation for the performing arts. So, when the opportunity arose to become involved, I eagerly reached out. I’m excited to help support the NPAF.

  Rosamaria Graziani – Board Member

I am honored to serve as a board member and my goal is to increase diversity attendance at NPAF events. 

  Jeanette Marquardt – Board Member

I believe it’s important for us to support the arts for our local community in order for them to enjoy the various entertainment presented in their own backyard instead of traveling outside the area.

STAFF

  John Lehrack – Managing Director

I have been a professional musician and educator my entire career. It’s a lot if fun to be on the administrative end too and work with so many fantastic volunteers and performers.

Ashley Meissner – Social Media and Box Office Manager

Community theater is in many ways the pinnacle of human art. It is a place where the sum of lived experience, passion and inspiration live–and where people at once learn and enjoy  more about their world, their community and their own lives. I am thrilled to be part of that dream and support local performing art.
