where creativity and community meet
Our Staff
Supported by dozens of wonderful volunteers, our staff work hard to bring our community the dynamic arts programming you have come to expect from us.

Dan Reynolds - Executive Director
An artist and writer, Dan has spent his life creating art and building opportunities for artists. He has produced shows and events all over Boston and Los Angeles; worked in development for Los Angeles Opera; and is now Artistic Director of the Machias Arts Council Theatre. Other adventures in pursuit of artistic projects have included being chased at gunpoint through the streets of Brazil, narrowly escaping road bandits in the deserts of Morocco, and being tear-gassed in Paris riots. Dan is excited to join the EAC team and be a part of Eastport's growing reputation as an arts destination.

Lura Jackson - Marketing Manager
Having grown up in Eastport, one of Lura's most impactful memories is being a part of the Fiddler on the Roof production with Stage East during its early years. Since then, she has gone on to become a journalist, writer and outreach specialist for the extended community. She earned an interdisciplinary master's degree from the University of Maine in 2018.
