MEET THE NCWCA BOARD: Laura Abrams, President.

Laura Abrams joined NCWCA in 2020, where her skills in arts management have served her roles as Professional Development Chair and now as President. She studied art history at UCLA, then arts management at NYU, where she had to choose between visual and performing arts. The stage took the lead, and Laura spent 30+ years traveling the world through great performances of dance, music, and theater as Cal Performances' Education Director, producing multifaceted campus and community programs. Making art is now a priority! She works on a small scale, creating layered works in stained glass, assemblage, and collage, with concurrent experiments in figure and plein air pastel drawing. NCWCAā€™s Art Tag is a constant source of inspiration.
