The Martha-Ellen Tye Foundation has named Heidi Dalal as the new executive director. She will take over for Karn Gregoire who retires at the end of May. Dalal, 39, will begin her new duties on June 1.
“Since its inception, the Foundation has served as a leader for the community that Martha-Ellen dearly loved,” Foundation Board President Matt Fisher said. “Collectively with other community partners, the Foundation has set its focus to help Marshalltown prosper and grow. Based on Heidi’s years with the Foundation, the Board has witnessed strength in her leadership and look forward to supporting her as she serves this important role.”
The arts in Marshalltown are being highlighted in a film series entitled “(Re)Invigorate.”
The series features dancers and Marshalltown natives Toree Benson, 22, and Nick Cooper, 21. The first video in the five-part series was released Jan. 8, and the second will be available for viewing on Friday.
The first video was filmed in the Gallery Garden on Main Street. In it, Cooper can be seen dancing amongst the plants and the art pieces. Benson was holding the camera and operating the drone.
The film series is sponsored by the Marshall County Arts & Culture Alliance and the first video can be seen on the website and the social media pages on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Amber Danielson, executive director of the Alliance, said Cooper and Benson reached out to her with the series proposal.
