Eli Klasner, executive director for the Community Arts Council of Prince George & District has announced he will be stepping down from his role early next year.

Eli Klasner, who began his time with the Community Arts Council of Prince George & District in 2016, is leaving his role as executive director, he announced Wednesday.

“I am stepping down as executive director of the CAC, to take effect during Q1-2 of 2025,” Klasner said in a written statement.

“It has been the experience of a lifetime helping where I could over the past seven years. It is my hope to help guide the succession planning, recruitment and onboarding of the new executive director. I also intend to continue to champion the new Studio 2880 Redevelopment Project and continue my advocacy for a new arts and entertainment complex in our downtown civic core.”

Klasner said he will continue to support the many causes and organizations in Prince George, especially in arts and culture, that are dear to his heart.
