Fa'afeiloa'iga tautotogo, WESTAF tausi mavaega ma pa'aga:<\/span><\/p>\n

This gorgeous Denver spring weather almost made me forget that we\u2019re now officially <\/span>half way through<\/span> WESAF\u2019s fiscal year! How did this happen? Let us skim right over that, and convey that we are so very joyful to welcome Anika Kwinana to WESTAF (her first day is today, April 5!) and also to announce that Moana Palalei Hoching is also joining us as a senior policy associate working with David. More information about Moana is included below. These sharp and savvy experts will provide much needed leadership, oversight and support in our SRI and AAP divisions, and we couldn\u2019t be more thrilled that they\u2019re joining the WESTAF community. From there, lots to report \u2014 including a chockablock marketing\/communications check-in from a very busy Leah, and some newsy and very cool business updates \u2014 so let\u2019s get to it, shall we? But wait! Before we go any further, let\u2019s kick this off right with news of a superb trustee achievement…<\/span><\/p>\n

The communications cohort has settled into a monthly meeting scheduled which is feeling pretty good for the team. At our last meeting, cohort members reported on some internal research including refining a survey that will be sent to WESTAF internal and external stakeholders. In addition, we are finishing up an evaluation of WESTAF\u2019s brand assets. Our next meeting is scheduled for April 7th and we will be checking-in on the moving parts to this project. We will also be moving into a research compilation phase on that date. Once we compile the research we will move into the first phase of our recommendations. The policy cohort met with our Trustee Advisors on March 19th to review<\/span> the scoping doc<\/span><\/a> and address any concerns. The document is now finalized and will be utilized as a guide to identify upcoming initiatives for the cohort. Co-leaders, Janae and Justine, met with David on Tuesday, March 30th to recap their meeting with the TAs and identify project proposals for the group.

As a first step, the group has created a shared document with all six RAO\u2019s tentpole activities for the year for better information sharing. We will meet again in mid-April to continue discussing the many great ideas that were shared in the March meeting and plan to meet on a monthly basis moving forward.

The newsletter highlighted special projects in collaboration with Mural Arts Philadelphia and featured some of PAA\u2019s collection spotlights, new features and enhancements. So far, the newsletter generated three leads and significantly increased traffic to the PAA website. We are currently working on drafting copy for PAA\u2019s first paid social media video ad, planned for an early Q3 launch.<\/span><\/p>\n
