The Pavilion still ‘Strangely Silent’ about the recent turnover

The Washington Pavilion still has not ‘publicly’ said why their development director suddenly left. And while the curator left because of another job opportunity, one wonders why she wanted ‘out’.

I have heard many, many versions as to why this turnover has happened, but since I don’t have an attorney on retainer, unless someone from Pavilion management is willing to go on record with me, I will keep the rumors and gossip to myself.

But the one question still remains. Why does a non-profit like the Pavilion, who receives subsidies from the city, the state and the Feds refuse to say ‘anything’ about the recent disappearance of their Development Director? No press releases, no replacement ads, nothing, zilch.

I encourage anyone who is either a member of the Pavilion, or knows any of the directors, to ask them in person, or drop them a line. Why all the secrecy?
