After 18 years with Music·Musique NB (yes… eighteen!), our Executive Director, Jean Surette, is stepping down from his role to begin a new chapter in his career.
While we’re sad to see him go, we’re also very happy for him as he heads toward this next adventure with the Government of New Brunswick as Director of Arts and Culture at the Department of Tourism, Heritage and Culture.
For nearly two decades, Jean has been a constant presence behind the scenes and on the front lines of New Brunswick’s music community, supporting artists, building partnerships, navigating busy conferences, and helping shape Music·Musique NB into what it is today. It’s safe to say the organization (and many of us!) wouldn’t be the same without him.
Until a new Executive Director is officially hired, Christine Dubé will take on the role of Interim Executive Director starting April 20th. Christine has been integral to the development of many of our programs as well as our current partnerships.
Please join us in thanking Jean for his 18 years of dedication. We’re incredibly grateful for everything he’s brought to MNB and to the New Brunswick music community!
