Katie Gabbard already busy with some heavy lifting
at the Garst Museum
Garst Museum Announces New Marketing Director
Garst Museum is pleased to welcome Katie Gabbard as the new marketing
director and chairperson of the Gathering at Garst. She replaces Jenny
Clark, who has stepped down to spend some deserved time off in northern
Michigan devoting many days to fishing, painting, and relaxing. The
Garst Museum applauds all that Jenny has spearheaded for the community
and wishes her the very best.
Katie Gabbard has been a familiar face at the Garst Museum as a
volunteer for the Gathering at Garst since its inception in 2011. For
this new role as marketing director, Katie brings specific insights
into engaging social media, promotions, and events. “Prior to accepting
this position, I spent 15 years as the owner of a small business in
downtown Greenville. The lessons that I’ve learned about community
engagement, outreach, and dynamic marketing are invaluable. I’m
thrilled to apply those skills to this new adventure at the Garst
Museum,” states Gabbard.
Wasting no time and already working on ideas for the Garst Museum,
Gabbard says, “With COVID-19 affecting nearly every facet of business
and life, I think it’s important to get a strong plan in place for
2021. I’m looking ahead to hosting a stellar 2021 Gathering at
Garst, bringing more awareness about the dynamic volunteer
opportunities at the Garst Museum, and drawing visitors from across the
Midwest to experience all that the Garst Museum has to share.”
