Board Member Spotlight: Scott Power
This month we are excited to highlight another of our new board members, Scott Power. After persistently reaching out to our Executive Director, Scott finally met with Kristin last winter to inquire about getting involved with the local arts community. After realizing they are distant relatives, they immediately hit it off and now we are thrilled to have Scott as an active member of our board, bringing his extensive career in the arts to the table.
1. What is your connection to the arts? Are you an artist yourself or do you have a particular interest in the arts?
I grew up in a musical family playing saxophone, singing in the choir, doing musical theatre, etc. Eventually I graduated from college with a graphic design degree and worked in visual communications at design firms and ad agencies in Chicago. My favorite clients were Sam Adams, Organic Valley and Target. Eventually I became a partner in an art gallery in Los Angeles, producing and curating shows with artists from around the world. What can I say? I love art and artists!
2. What is your favorite art medium and why is it your favorite?
I seek out art that makes me FEEL something new, it doesn’t matter what medium it is. I want to feel something I haven’t felt before!
3. If you could learn any arts medium, what would it be? Why?
In terms of visual art, I would say Light and Illumination. What James Turrel does is amazing! In terms of performance art, comedy. The ability to make people laugh is a super power!
4. What is your favorite part of your role as a MAC Board Member?
My favorite part of being a MAC Board Member is helping to make our beloved Mono County even more beautiful with art and artists!
5. Why do you think the arts are so important right now?
I think the visual and performing arts give people a way to express themselves and self expression is fundamental and vital to the human experience. And today, as we become more reliant on technology and automation, the arts and creativity are essential to help us stay connected to each other and grounded to the natural world. Art and artists empower empathy and challenge the status quo which is essential for human growth and cultural innovation. And, if we stop growing and connecting, it ain’t gonna be pretty. So, for me, art isn’t a luxury. It’s essential. Always has been, always will be.

Scott's take on comedy as a superpower is brilliant – laughter really does connect us! And his point about art being essential for growth is spot on. For a fun way to keep your mind engaged, I really enjoy playing MeowdoKu Game Online in my downtime.
Scott's passion for art as a form of self-expression truly resonates. It's exciting to think about new tools that empower artists. I've been experimenting with Zeva AI Image Generator and it's fascinating to see how it can help spark creative ideas or visualize concepts quickly.
It is wonderful to see Scott bringing his passion to the MAC Board, making Mono County even more beautiful'! Staying active to participate in community efforts is important. For my daily routine, I sometimes wear a knee brace support to keep things comfortable.
I loved Scott's answer about wanting to learn Light and Illumination, especially mentioning James Turrell. Imagine capturing that kind of art digitally! If you're ever dealing with image files, especially from different sources, converting them is easy with something like Heic to MP4.
