  An organization promoting arts, music, theater, and cultural attractions in downtown Springfield, Massachusetts has a new executive director.

    Karen Finn has been tapped to run the Springfield Cultural Partnership, the parent organization of the Springfield Central Cultural District.

    The walkable area of downtown Springfield is one of 44 designated cultural districts in Massachusetts. It was founded in 2014.

   Finn, who started in the job just a week ago, sat down in her office with WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
