Meet Our Executive Director- Keri Cleasby

As Executive Director of the VFAA/SHAC, Keri Cleasby brings a deep passion for building community through the power of the arts. With a strong background in marketing and nonprofit leadership, she has spent her career connecting people to purpose and creativity.

Keri believes that the arts have the power to inspire, heal, and unite—and is committed to making them accessible to all. Her vision is rooted in collaboration, inclusion, and a love for creating meaningful experiences that bring people together.

When she’s not championing the arts, you can find her enjoying the beach, hanging with her labradoodle, or spending time with her husband and four grown sons.
