Syracuse, N.Y. — Rita Paniagua, chair of the CNY Arts, Inc. board of directors, and executive director Stephen Butler jointly announced that Butler will retire on Feb. 1, 2025, after 16 years as executive director of the agency. Butler will provide continuity to CNY Arts during this transition till the end of 2025 by serving as leadership and continuity consultant, providing his expertise to the next executive director and the board of directors. Alexander Korman, deputy director, at this point in time, has been appointed CNY Arts interim executive director. “For the past 16 years, Stephen Butler has been a transformative leader in the arts, guiding CNY Arts to become one of the most vibrant and impactful arts councils in New York State,” said Rita Paniagua. “Under Stephen’s leadership, CNY Arts has flourished, elevating the arts across the region through innovative community programming. His efforts have secured tremendous resources for the arts, enriching the cultural landscape for the communities we serve. On behalf of the CNY Arts Board of Directors and the communities we serve, I extend our deepest gratitude to Stephen for his remarkable service and steadfast dedication to advancing the arts. We are thrilled that he will continue to lend his vast expertise to the organization in his new consulting role.” “Working at CNY Arts has been wonderful,” Butler said. “I want to thank the CNY Arts Board of Directors, staff, and volunteers, past and present. Working together over the years, we have made tremendous strides to move this agency forward. I want to thank our elected officials, past and present, who have supported our work in the arts. I especially want to applaud County Executive Ryan McMahon, the county legislature, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, the state legislature, Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh, and the Syracuse Common Council. I’ve been at the helm of CNY Arts since late 2008 and I can say in full confidence that, if it wasn’t for all our stakeholders, CNY Arts would not be the active, reliable, vibrant, regional council that it is for all things arts, culture and historical.”
