Dear Donna:
The OCAC Advisory Board reviewed the list of current applicants as of the last board meeting on Monday,
November 13, 2017. Of the applications on file as of that date,the board recommends the appointment of Marlon
Torres (Position#10) and Linda Williamson (Position#1). Mr.Torres is the executive director of N.C.Arts in
Action,a performing arts education organization who works with schools around the Triangle. Ms.Williamson has
a background in performing arts and arts administration. The two candidates fill our need for board members who
represent the performing arts and Arts in Education in Orange County.
If these new board applicants are approved,that will leave two vacancies. We have several other recent applicants
whom we are meeting with and will be voting on at our January, 2018,meeting. We hope to return to a full board
by February.
Sincerely,
Katie Murray

I have lived in Orange County for the last 20 years and before that lived in Hillsborough from 5th
