Less than six months into my role as Director of Education & Community Engagement at the Appell Center for the Performing Arts, a member of the community said to me that “people know when something isn’t made for them.” Having just moved to York, PA to assume this new position at an organization focused on expanding education and community engagement programs, I was working double-time to make connections and have honest conversations about ways the performing arts center could do better in truly serving its community. I was learning that there were two sides to every coin, and navigating a way to honor and support existing narratives.
