Meet the board.
Here for Downtown
Our board is made up of people who live here, work here, and invest their time and energy here. They bring experience from small business, education, nonprofits, real estate, the arts, and more.
Each director brings a different lens on what makes downtown thrive. Together, they help ensure our programs and partnerships support local businesses, reflect community needs, and keep downtown welcoming to everyone.
The board works alongside staff, volunteers, and partners to strengthen downtown’s economy, honor its history, and keep it a place people love to spend time. We are grateful for their leadership and their commitment to downtown Walla Walla.
