Beth Falconer began serving as the Executive Director of 3S Artspace in 2016 when the organization was in its second year of full-time operations. A graduate of Colby College (BA, Performing Arts, and English) and Brandeis University's Heller School for Social Policy and Management (MA, Sustainable Development), Beth's career has been entirely dedicated to nonprofits and their role in building and sustaining healthy communities. Prior to 3S, she served as the Executive Director for the Firehouse Center for the Arts in Newburyport, MA, as the Vice President of Communications for a state-wide organization dedicated to youth and after-school programs, and as a Program Director for an international student exchange and education company.

Beth has a lifelong love of art in all its forms. While she once loved performing, she now prefers life behind the scenes, working to leverage opportunities for others. Her love of "the business side of things" came as a great, but welcome surprise, as did her becoming a dog person. She loves traveling, swimming, hiking, cooking, and reading, and is happiest when her whole family is home sharing a meal together.
