SPAA NEWSROOM
2020 SHINE Mural Festival - Artist: Alex Yanes

The St. Petersburg Arts Alliance (SPAA) is excited and honored to welcome Danielle Weitlauf to our Board of Directors!

Danielle Weitlauf is an Account Supervisor at Tucker/Hall, a company that has long supported the arts in Tampa Bay and beyond. Danielle has experience in economic development and nonprofit management. She works with clients on strategic communications, crisis prevention, media support, and government and community relations.

Weitlauf states, "Supporting the arts in our community is not just a philanthropic duty; it's a strategic investment. The arts inspire creativity, foster innovation, and bring people together, creating a vibrant and dynamic environment where businesses and individuals thrive. By nurturing the arts, we cultivate a culture of creativity that drives economic growth and enriches the quality of life for everyone."

Danielle is a resident of St. Petersburg and supports the community by volunteering her time with a variety of organizations committed to arts, education and leadership.  She recently served as Board president for St. Petersburg City Theatre and her son is a 2024 graduate of Pinellas County Center for the Arts at Gibbs High School. Danielle has artists of various forms throughout her family and is committed to sharing in their passion through her leadership on the St. Petersburg Arts Alliance Board of Directors.

SPAA is excited for Danielle's contributions to help us strengthen and sustain the art and cultural community in St. Petersburg through collaboration, economic growth, education, and consistent funding.
