(Cazenovia NY) Sarah Helbig Webster has recently been promoted to director of the Stone Quarry Hill Art Park in Cazenovia. Webster, previously office manager at the art park, will be responsible for the exhibitions, programming, grounds and administration of the 104-acre outdoor sculpture facility.
She assumes this role following the recent retirement of Joseph Scala, executive director.
Prior to joining the Art Park, Webster was affiliated with the Madison Arts and Cultural Alliance from 2006 to 2010, where she was on its membership committee.
From 2005 to 2007, she was successively vice president and president of a community adult school serving three New Jersey communities. Since moving back to Cazenovia, Webster has served on the board of the Friends of Lorenzo State Historic site, the Cazenovia Lake Foundation and remains active with community organizations.
“Sarah has hands-on experience in developing programs, expanding membership, and engaging the community actively in support of the arts,” said John Hunt, president of the SQHAP Board of Directors. “We look forward to her continuing and expanded role at the Art Park.”
A graduate of William Smith College, Webster resides with her husband David and two children in Cazenovia.
The SQHAP Board also announced the election of Patricia J. Radell to the board of directors. Radell was previously chief financial officer of Liverpool Credit Union in Liverpool. She served as director of finance for the Huntington Family Center in Syracuse from 2007 to 2011.
Her prior experience includes more than 15 years as controller or accounting or financial consultant to local businesses and organizations.
“Patty’s financial background brings an added strength to the board as we plan for the next 20 years of the Art Park,” Hunt said. “Her results-oriented approach has benefited numerous for-profit and non-profit organizations throughout the greater Syracuse area. We are fortunate to have her join the Board.”
Radell is a graduate of SUNY Oswego and resides in Camden.
