The Whitewater Arts Alliance has announced that Ashley “Ashe” McDarison has joined the organization as the Whitewater Arts Alliance (WAA) manager.
McDarison, who began working with the WAA in February, has assumed duties that include general gallery management, working with artists, coordinating exhibits, creating workshops, and updating social media pages, among others, according to the release.
McDarison graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in May of 2018 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in communications with emphasis in Electronic Media and a minor in Film Studies. McDarison has produced several videos for the WAA prior to employment and continues her work as a freelance videographer under the YouTube name: McDarison Productions.
“Although I am not a painter, I still have a deep connection to the visual arts. I create a lot of horror Gothic films, so being connected with more like-minded artists really helps me thrive. I’m excited to be a part of the community, work with all the fabulous volunteers, and inspire not only myself but others,” McDarison was quoted as saying in the release.
McDarison is gender-fluid, changing between female, male and non-binary pronouns. Most commonly, McDarison uses non-binary pronouns: “ze/zey/xyr.”
