Hillsborough NC 27278 Phone: 919-451-1876 Email: denise@musicmaker.org Year of OC Residence: 2001 Township of Residence: Hillsborough Zone of Residence: Hillsborough Town Limits Gender Identity: Female Ethnic Background: White Age Range: 60+ Community Activities/Organizational Memberships: Managing Director, Music Maker Foundation Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: None Boards/Commissions applied for: Arts Commission Background, education and experience relevant to this board: I am co-founder and Managing Director of Music Maker Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Hillsborough that has served musical artists and audiences in North Carolina for 29 years. Additionally, my college degree in liberal arts from Hampshire College, was more centered on textiles and fiber arts. So, I have an interest in and understanding of a diverse array of artistic disciplines. Music Maker has supported more than 500 artists and presented more than 8,000 artist performances to audience in Orange County, North Carolina, the nation and the world. I have a deep understanding of how important it is to support artists within their home communities, both for the growth of the artist and for the strength of the community. It is also important for a community to have the benefit of experiencing artists of diverse backgrounds from all over the world to bring richness and innovation to the community. While Music Maker has primarily focussed on music, I have overseen the funding, creation and touring of 4 different cultural and fine arts exhibits that have been installed at more than 40 museums and cultural arts centers across the country since 2014. 1 have been the primary individual responsible for overseeing the financial management, grants management, development and government compliance of a 501(c)3 arts organization for 29 years. I have worked to build our annual budget from $20,000 in 1994 to$1.3 million in 2023, so I understand the inner workings and operations of arts organizations of a variety of sizes. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: 6 Page 2 of 2 Denise Duffy I think the arts are essential to our quality of life in Orange County. Reverence for and support of the arts by the Orange County government and community were important factors in our decision to move our family and nonprofit organization to Orange County in 2001. Shared public arts experiences are crucial to building and maintenance of the social fabric of our community and critical to the education of our children if we want to raise them to be thoughtful, engaged citizens. The Arts Commission has shown great innovation and strong arts leadership, especially in the past 4 or 5 years and I would be excited to play a more active role. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: I have worked with senior roots musicians for three decades and understand the complexity of the challenges artists marginalized by age, race, gender and class face in reaching broader audiences and funding their work. As the co-founder of an arts organization, I understand what it takes to have an artistic vision and realize that vision by bringing energy, community and funding to it-to build something where there was nothing. Conflict of Interest: I am an employee of an organization that has received grants from the OCAC in the past. would recuse myself from any votes/commentary that would impact funding decisions of any grants in which Music Maker was an applicant. Our organization is not eligible to apply for most of the arts grants offered by OCAC because we are a Statewide Service Organization of the NC Arts Council.

Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: I am passionate about the arts and supporting artists and I firmly believe that a thriving arts scene is key to a thriving community.
