Staff & Board
Artesian Performing Arts is a registered non-profit charitable corporation in the province of Saskatchewan and is operated by a voluntary Board of Directors - Jaime Carlson, Allan Hall, Hari Patel, Jayme Oakley, Laureen Larson, Lisa Danchilla, Marilyn Turnley, and Jessi Swan. If you need to contact the board directly for any reason please email . Artesian staff members do not have access to this email inbox.
The organization employs an Artistic Director, Leah Erenberg. A large part of her work for the Artesian is centred around booking the performers we host on our stage.
Leah Erenberg is an arts lover, event planner and community organizer living in Regina / Treaty 4 Territory.
Before joining the Artesian, she operated Tiny Gallery in Winnipeg, a multidisciplinary project space that hosted exhibitions, intimate music shows, workshops, and pop-ups. There, she also represented a roster of visual artists, connecting them to opportunities and facilitating the sale of their work.
Leah is passionate about visual art, music, dance, theatre, film, and more – and loves bringing artists together for cross-disciplinary collaboration. She is inspired by the changing art world as well as the historical and cultural art forms sustained by the many communities that call this place home.
Leah is honoured and excited to continue the Artesian’s legacy as a community cultural hub. Her vision for the Artesian is to provide a place where the arts are accessible, and diverse communities of Regina are instrumental in programming. She looks forward to continuing to create opportunities for cross-cultural learning and collaboration.
Leah welcomes conversations that spark creative ideas – feel free to connect.
The organization also employs an Operations Director, Bruno Hernani Merino. Bruno manages our non-profit operations and works on resource and partnership development in the community. If you'd like to get involved as a sponsor or community partner email Bruno at .
