About Cheryl Chamblee

Cheryl has been the Executive Director of the Chatham Arts Council since fall of 2012. She has worked with nonprofits for more than 20 years. When she's not leading the Chatham Arts Council, she has adventures with her daughter and husband, makes theatre, and coaches other creative-leader-mamas. Cheryl's earliest creative memory is of being three years old and making a Three Wise Men craft with Q-Tips, construction paper, and cardboard with her mama. And yes, she still has it.
