Rochester, NY (11/21/2017) — The Nazareth College Arts Center welcomes Michelle Shippers as its marketing and publicity manager. Shippers, a 2007 graduate of Nazareth, will play an integral role in developing and implementing strategies for the Arts Center's engagement, marketing, public relations, website content, and social media.
Most recently, Shippers was a communications manager for the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO). In this role, she was the lead editor and project manager for in-house publications and served as a brand journalist to tell the stories of the RPO.
