Creative Corridors Coalition is excited to announce that it has hired an executive director, Brenda Fulmore, and has a new board chair, Christie Williams.
The changes come as CCC builds, strengthens, and sustains its mission to provide the Winston-Salem community with a network of green, artful, iconic corridors, footpaths, and bridges.
Fulmore has been involved with CCC for 12 years and most recently served as the board chair. Beyond CCC, she is known in the community for her advocacy for minority- and women-owned businesses. Fulmore is excited about transitioning to the executive director's role to continue the work of the CCC.
"We have an exciting new project on the horizon this fall, and it will need all hands on deck. This upcoming project is a passion project for me, and I think our city will "GAIN" positively from its impact," Fulmore said. "GAIN," a guiding principle for CCC, stands for Green, Artful, Iconic, Network.
Williams has served on the CCC board for six years and was most recently the Community Relations Committee co-vice chair. Beyond CCC, Williams is known in the community for her work with the nonprofit organizations Love Out Loud and Cycle Recycle. Williams is thrilled about her new role at CCC because she knows there is so much work to be done. In addition to the new project CCC is launching this fall, the organization is also working on the multi-use paths in Winston-Salem, corridor signage, and beautifying the Martin Luther King Jr. Drive corridor.
Williams says Brenda Fulmore is the right person for the executive director role at CCC.
"Brenda will be a great executive director because of her passion, understanding of the community, and persistence," Williams said.
Conversely, Fulmore knows that Williams brings a wealth of knowledge about the community to the role of board chair.
"I am grateful that we will continue to work together to support the organization's mission," Fulmore said.
