  • Orlando Ballet Hires Turnaround Expert Michael Kaiser
    January 20, 2016 Orlando Ballet hires turnaround expert Michael Kaiser By MATTHEW J. PALM Dogged by financial struggles and a string of short-term executive directors, Orlando Ballet has hired a top name in arts leadership to shore up the organization. Michael M. Kaiser, who spent 15 years as president of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., began consulting with the ballet this month. He left the center in August and “Giselle” dress rehearsal: Orlando Ballet dancers and Orlando Philharmonic is chairman of the DeVos musicians prepare for the ballet opening Friday, Oct. 30, at the Dr. Phillips Institute of Arts Center for the Performing Arts in Orlando. This will be the first season in Management at the which the ballet has live music for every performance. (Photo: Ricardo University of Maryland. Ramirez Buxeda) “Based on his track record of turning around arts organizations, and specifically ballet companies, we are confident his leadership will help us continue the momentum we have as a company and guide us toward long-term growth and success,” said Sibille Pritchard, a former Orlando Ballet board chair who is leading the turnaround effort. Facing a cash crunch before Christmas, the organization cut back on performances of “The Nutcracker” and threw the future of its much-ballyhooed live orchestral accompaniment into doubt. The ballet also severed ties with interim executive director James Cundiff, the group's sixth leader in six years. Throughout his career, Kaiser has demonstrated that he's not afraid of a challenge. During his tenure at the Kennedy Center, Kaiser oversaw a major renovation project and created the arts-management institute.

The San Francisco Fleet Week Association (SFFWA) is proud to present our sixth annual Veterans Art Exhibit during Fleet Week 2018. San Francisco Fleet Week is a time when we pay tribute to our women and men in uniform, and also focus on ways to improve the way we provide humanitarian assistance and educate ourselves about disaster preparedness. San Francisco Fleet Week has earned the reputation of producing the largest Fleet Week in the United States, and as Fleet Week has grown, so has its mission. Since 2010, with the establishment of its Center for Humanitarian Assistance, Fleet Week has helped bring together leaders of federal, state and local government disaster response agencies, first responders, foreign dignitaries, non-governmental organizations and private sector companies with Department of Defense services to improve the nation’s ability to respond to catastrophic disasters. As a precursor to San Francisco Fleet Week, more than 150 officials from federal, state and local governments and the military take part in an interactive exercise focused on military support in response to a catastrophic event.
