Patricia A. Nicholson, former Associate Dean for External Affairs at Stanford University School of Education has joined the management team at Fort Mason Center.  The 32 year old cultural center has entered a long term lease agreement with the National Park Service which requires a substantial fundraising effort.
 
Ms. Nicholson, who left Stanford University to consult with nonprofit organizations, said,” I began my life in San Francisco as a volunteer at Fort Mason Center, I am thrilled to be back in a professional capacity.”  Prior to Stanford, Nicholson was Director of Development at San Francisco Conservatory of Music and Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations at University of San Francisco.
 
Fort Mason Center is a dynamic waterfront destination for thought-provoking programs, events,  and organizations which support and reflect the evolving cultural fabric of San Francisco and the Bay Area.
