Richard began her involvement with the festival as an Artist Relations volunteer, has served as co-chair for the Artist Relations Committee, and worked as the Festival Assistant in 2015 and 2016. “Coming in as interim Artist Management Coordinator last year, I am excited to be back again full-time this year,” Richard said. “I love being part of the rich tradition started by others to create a successful fine arts festival for our community.“

Richard will also coordinate the artist application and jury process for Phase IV of the Council’s Art Bench Project. In her personal career, she is an artist and Coach of Intentional Creativity. Richard uses various art mediums to help people connect with their own inner wisdom to facilitate healing and to create the life they desire.
