Through prodigious storytelling skills and as co-founder of the Mill Valley Music Festival, Mill Valley Chamber Executive Director Jim Welte contributes in multiple ways to our community’s creative life. In 2010 as newspapers languished, he launched and managed Mill Valley Patch, a news and information site, covering the local community with depth and accuracy. As longtime editor of the Enjoy Mill Valley blog, website and newsletter, Jim shines a bright light on artists, arts events, iconic institutions and nonprofits and the City’s Arts Commission and Library. He has a discerning eye for what’s important and is highly responsive to requests from artists, event organizers and organizations wishing to inform the community of their activities. In these and many other ways Jim is a vital contributor to Mill Valley arts.
