Michele Vavonese

My name is Michele Vavonese, I'm the Director of HOPE.  However, before stepping into this position I had the pleasure of being a Visual Arts Instructor, the Boutique Coordinator and wearing many other hats at HOPE for more than 13 years. And in that time I grew to understand and thouroughly respect our population of Artists and Performers. I have learned the business of protocol and compliance, regulations and law but more than that I have learned from HOPE artists the true rule of living, being in the moment, trusting in yourself and being kind and giving to those around you. These areas all work to keep an individual open and honest, if this makes sense to you then we should work very well together!
