About this Event
After 12 years of leadership, Shane Prada, the BJC’s founding executive director, will be stepping down from her role this fall. Over the last 12 years, Shane has grown the BJC from a tiny organization with 4 programs and a budget of $150,000 in 2014 to midsize organization with 20 programs and a budget nearing $800,000 in 2025. She has spearheaded programs that have allowed the BJC to expand its reach and impact, from workforce development and youth programming to symposiums and artist residencies.
We have grown exponentially with Shane’s shared vision. Under her leadership, the BJC has secured an endowment (and doubled that endowment!), ensuring that the BJC has a long-term sustainable funding structure. While it is bittersweet to think about what the next era of the BJC will look like without her at our helm, this transition comes at a time when we are able to project our ideas, hopes, and dreams into the future. We are excited to welcome a new leader to the BJC.
Before we let her go, we are having a big, beautiful celebration of Shane and all of her accomplishments over the last 10 years! Please join us on Friday, September 19th from 6-8pm to say farewell to Shane as our Executive Director.
