Carolina Thor, the theater’s executive director, said Nash will be a tremendous asset.
“We welcome Carla’s perspectives gained from working with both public and nonprofit organizations,” Thor said. “As the leader of Sewickley’s Union Aid Society, Carla has strong insights into delivering services to people living in vulnerable circumstances and within the theater’s reach.”
