The Bartlesville Symphony Orchestra Board is pleased to announce that, upon the unexpected resignation of John Jenkins, Emily Fowler has agreed to serve as Interim Executive Director. Having served as the Executive Assistant to the BSO, she brings a wide knowledge of the "behind the scenes" operations of the symphony to her new position. Emily previously served on the BSO Board of Directors and has a great passion for the symphony. We hope you will join us in welcoming Emily to her new position and in wishing John well in his future endeavors. Emily can be contacted at emily@bartlesvillesymphony.org. You can also reach out to me as Board President at melanie.bayles.volunteer@gmail.com. We appreciate you and hope that you will continue to support the Symphony!
