Hannah Jensen
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Hello! I’m Hannah – a longtime Art Buddies Mentor and member of the Twin Cities design and arts community. I am honored and absolutely thrilled to step in as Art Buddies new Executive Director!
I come to this role as a former MPS student who experienced the importance and value of access to the arts as a way of better understanding one's self, building confidence, and becoming an active community member. After 15+ years working as a designer and Creative director, I am so excited to be able to put these skills and connections and my deep care for our community to work supporting our kids and schools.
I want to extend my deepest gratitude to Heidi Rich and Greer Lichtenberg for steering and growing this incredible organization over the past several years. I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from and work alongside them. While I have big shoes to fill, I know that with their guidance and the amazing support of so many dedicated volunteers and donors we will continue to bring connection, creativity, joy and googly eyes to hundreds of kids each year in the Twin Cities. This matters now more than ever.
Thank you, and I look forward to connecting with many of you in the coming weeks and months.
