AFA Board of Directors - Gwen Snell

Gwen has enjoyed a successful career in municipal administration for over 35 years, where she worked closely with communities to plan and develop facilities with programs that enhance life for all ages. An active volunteer in provincial, regional and local boards, she finds it rewarding to contribute.  

Gwen's passion for amateur theatre has resulted in several on-stage appearances. She's been the driving force behind the return of musicals in her community, including two junior productions. Her volunteer efforts include event management with “Music in the Park” every summer in the town of Hanna, and taking an active role with local arts and music groups. Her work as a freelance journalist focuses on good news stories that recognize everyday people achieving the extraordinary. 

Gwen believes it is an honour and privilege to contribute and support Alberta’s extraordinary arts community.
