Directors

Joel joined the Weston Media Center (WMC) board in 2017. He learned about, and became interested in, the WMC as a member of three related committees and boards: the Weston Public Library (WPL) Board of Trustees, which first mapped out the relationship between the WMC and the WPL in 2014; the Weston Art and Innovation Center (AIC), an initiative of the Weston Public Library and “landlord” of the WMC; and the Cable Advisory Committee which has oversight for Weston’s contracts with the cable companies, the source of revenue for the WMC. All four groups have a common goal: Helping residents build an active, engaged, and informed Weston.
