The WCR Center for the Arts has announced that Adam Void has been appointed as its new executive director. Originally from Reading, Void brings extensive experience in the performing arts, community engagement, and nonprofit leadership to the role.

Void received his Bachelor of Arts in theater and English from Muhlenberg College and a Master of Fine Arts in performance from Arizona State University. He is also a graduate of United Way's 2024-25 Leadership Berks program and currently serves on the board of Co-County Wellness Services.

Since returning to the Reading area in 2021, Void has held leadership positions as theater manager of the Boscov Theater at GoggleWorks and as director of school and community engagement at the Yocum Institute for Arts Education. Prior to his return, he worked in Denver, Colo., with Mirror Image Arts, a nonprofit dedicated to using theater to help youths build social-emotional learning skills in schools, after-school programs, and juvenile detention centers, with a focus on anti-bullying initiatives.

Void aims to deepen partnerships and expand community involvement as the WCR Center prepares for another season of performances and programs.
