Arena Theater Board of Directors
Candidate Statements

Paul Andersen

 It has been an honor to serve on the Arena Theater Board during these challenging times. As a Board, in addition to securing the safety of our patrons, we faced severe financial challenges but were kept afloat by increased donations from members and significant federal investment through the Shuttered Venue Operators grant. The Finance Committee has begun meeting regularly as we chart a course out of the pandemic. As Treasurer, I feel confident for the future of the Theater, which is such a vital part of the community. I’m proud of the way the community has continued to support the Theater even while closed. I look forward to continuing my service on the Theater Board if selected to do so.

 Michael Beattie

 It has been an honor to have served as an Arena Theater board member for the last nine years. I would like nothing more than to be able to continue to serve our theater and our community for another term. During this time I have served as facilities director and over the last two years as president, two years prior as vice president and member of the facilities committee. I also am active with the theater serving as the bartender during live events. It would be a pleasure to continue to serve as a board member of the Arena Theater.

 Rodrigo Curbelo

I am interested in becoming a member of the board. I have lived in this community since 2018 and have enjoyed the theater as a patron and as an occasional performer.   Prior to moving here I was a Public Defender in San Bernardino for 20 years.
I love music and what the theater brings to the community. I am most interested in the live music committee but willing to work on any committee where my services are needed.
