Show Notes
Joseph Henry, a 35-year-old London native, has been appointed as the new Chief of the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture in Boston. With a background in architecture and urban planning, Henry aims to address artist displacement, improve career paths for mid-level artists, and increase arts access for all. He plans to achieve this by securing affordable spaces, creating better career opportunities, and expanding arts access. Henrys appointment comes after a fourteen-month search, and he is expected to build on the progress made during Kara Elliott-Ortegas six-year tenure, which saw the office grow from twelve staffers to twenty-five and the budget increase from $1.49 million to $4 million.
