Washington Performing Arts Welcomes Nine New Members to Its Junior Board

Simone Earle, Donovan M. Harris, Olivia Kozlevcar, Nic Nivison, Eiman Siddiqui, Martín Uribe Francia, Sarat Varanasi, Olivia Vega, and Cierra Wells appointed for two-year terms starting September 1, 2026. Washington Performing Arts launched the Junior Board in 2016 to develop the next generation of board leaders and arts supporters, answering a prevailing refrain: how do we continue to infuse our Boards with new leaders who are passionate about the arts? Just as it spotlights new talent through its presentations and programs, Washington Performing Arts created the Junior Board to bring that same commitment to the governance pipeline.
