As Dec. 31 approaches, the love and outpouring of support for Janera Solomon steadily continues.
Solomon, the executive director of the Kelly Strayhorn Theater in East Liberty for the past 11 years, will relinquish her position at year’s end.
During her tenure, Solomon forged a number of alliances and partnerships within the region’s arts and foundation community, and as a consultant to entities such as the Museum of the African Diaspora in San Francisco, the August Wilson Center, Brooklyn Museum of Art, and several others with Toronto-based, cultural planning firm Lord Culture, she extended KST’s footprint nationally and internationally as an arts destination in Pittsburgh.
Kelly Strayhorn Theater Board Chair Yvonne Campos said that Solomon “put the Kelly Strayhorn Theater on the map. We are very thankful for her dedication these past 11 years…it’s our job to carry her legacy forward.”
