Sarah Millfelt, Deputy Director of Programs, will replace longtime director Emily Galusha.

Millfelt, 35, was hired in 1999, after graduating from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls with a BFA in ceramics. She was initially hired as an assistant to the then-Education Director, to manage NCC's nascent outreach program, but was promoted to director of the program about a year later.

Emily Galusha announced her retirement last year. She has been with NCC since 1991, and was hired as director in 1994. NCC was founded by Peter Leach.
