Since 1992, Kathleen Brown has been an integral part of Lord’s mission to make the world a better place through culture. In 1992, she founded the U.S. offices of Lord Cultural Resources, and in 2015, she returned to Toronto, first as Director of Business Development, then COO, and then as Senior Practice Leader.

Please join us in congratulating Kathleen on her next big move: retirement.

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of our esteemed colleague Dr. Ahmed Ghazali who tragically died in a car accident in Morocco on July 27th. Ahmed collaborated with Lord on multiple cultural projects since 2017, with his expertise and dedication significantly contributing to our work across continents. His loss is profoundly felt by all who had the privilege of working with him. Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and colleagues around the world.

“The Arts Council believes that investing in arts and culture will uplift the entire Rockford region by telling Rockford’s many stories.

The Arts Council consulted with Lord Cultural Resources whose mission statement is ‘making the world a better place through culture’, and that starts from within their team. We’ve had the honor of working with a powerhouse team from Lord. They’ve impressed city officials, community leaders, and Rockford Region residents with their knowledge of Rockford’s history and their Rockford current events proficiency — I hear about regional wins from the Lord team before they hit our media’s websites.”

Please join us in celebrating  Jamie Bennett, Lord Thought Leader and Associate, as he takes on his latest project: interim co-CEO of Americans for the Arts (AFTA), alongside Suzy Delvalle.
