If you've been to SPACES in the last 26 years there is no doubt that you have met Marilyn Simmons. Her time with SPACES spanned 3 Executive Directors (Susan Channing, Christopher Lynn, and Christina Vassallo) and countless openings, benefit parties, and everything in between. In the office she is referred to as the Gallery Oracle, which we think is a fitting title for someone who knows just what needs to get done, through intuition alone. She is friend to artist, aspiring student, and art enthusiast alike. She's overseen and mentored countless interns, many of whom have moved on to successful careers in the arts.
When I first started at SPACES back in 2013 I was told by several co-workers that if I needed anything I should talk to Marilyn, because "she knows everyone." And it's true. Every time I meet someone new and tell them "I work at SPACES", they ask, "how is Marilyn"? Her name is synonymous with SPACES. While she will be concluding her tenure at SPACES at the end of this month, we know that the incredible work she has done at SPACES, and for the Cleveland art scene, will continue to have an impact on our programming.
Marilyn's last day is January 31st, but we ask that you celebrate her and her work at our January 26th opening reception.
