Grow North welcomes new executive director
Beyer "brings a unique understanding of business management, economic development, organizational innovation, and cultural enhancement to make the Northwoods a better place to live, play and work," according to the newsletter.
A native of Illinois, Beyer spent almost two decades in New York City working within the arts and culture field before relocating to the Northwoods to become the Warehouse Art Center's Executive Director in 2016.
According to the newsletter, she earned a BFA in Dance Performance from New York University/Tisch School of the Arts, where she began her career as a professional dancer touring in both the United States and Europe, where she worked with choreographers such as Johannes Wieland and JoAnna Mendl Shaw of the Equus Projects. Finding a deepening interest in arts management, she returned to NYU and continued her studies, receiving an MA in Art and Public Policy where she focused on Nonprofit Management and Social Entrepreneurship.
For the better part of a decade, Beyer has served in Company Management and Fundraising capacities in many arts-based non-profits, including the Equus projects, Lar Lubovitch Dance Company, and the Dance Enthusiast (an online arts resource journal). During her final three years in New York, Beyer was the business development manager and executive assistant to the president of EmcArts, an arts service organization that moves organizations through complex challenges through workshops, coaching and intensive labs, the newsletter explains.
"I'm excited to bring my experiences to the table and continue the collaborative working environment in the Grow North region," Beyer said. "We have a great community in the Northwoods and I look forward to working hard and growing the available opportunities for everyone."
