Online Education Presenter: Ara G. Beal

Ara G. Beal combines her decades of theater production experience, nonprofit management, and teaching background into coaching small nonprofits on how to increase their capacity for clear communications. This work inspires the mission of her company, Storybook Foundry. In addition to working with individual nonprofits, Ara presents to groups such as Chambers of Commerce, AFP vchapters, SCORE chapters, and other nonprofit networking groups. She also reviews grants for the Ohio Arts Council and Culture Works of Dayton, Ohio. Still active in theater, you might find Ara in all black, backstage at a state of art theater in between meeting with clients and leading workshops.
