Farewell to Diane Bailey Morton

12 Feb 2020 11:26 PM | Anonymous


Diane Bailey Morton, who served as executive director of the Warehouse Arts District Association for two years, left WADA January 31, 2020.  President Mark Aeling noted her many accomplishments during that time, including increasing WADA’s profile with the many high caliber exhibitions she oversaw in the Tully-Levine Gallery, the great publicity WADA received during her tenure in TV, Newspapers and magazines, the WEDU Be More non-profit Arts and Culture award, and many other collaborations with non-profits in the area.  She expanded business memberships for WADA, received a donation that allowed us to pave the plaza and create the Burka Member Lounge. She was responsible for the vision behind Phase II of the ArtsXchange, for which we are raising funds now for a new Education and Performance Center and created a dance advisory board for the organization. Thanks to Diane’s stewardship, we are in a much better position as an organization for the future.  WADA is assessing its needs over the next several months and intends to have a search for Diane’s replacement in the spring or summer of 2020.
