Lakeside is a community known for celebrating the arts. In this lunchtime session, Jennifer Wertz, Lakeside’s Rhein Center Manager, will give a behind-the-scenes look at the arts center and highlight a variety of art classes for all ages. She will be joined by Kiris Marie Fox, Lakeside’s Visual Arts Manager, who will share plans for exhibits and art installations across Lakeside this summer.
This summer will be Wertz’s eighth season at Lakeside and her sixth as Rhein Center Manager. Before taking on the Rhein Center, she was the Programming Department’s Administrative Assistant and Project Coordinator. With a degree in fine arts and theatre, Wertz’s career has spanned marketing, communications and graphic design to photography, filmmaking and video development.
Fox has enjoyed working with the Lakeside community since 2023. She has served as the Arts Management Assistant and Program Manager and moved into her current role in 2025. A graduate of Baldwin Wallace University with a bachelor’s degree in arts management and entrepreneurship with minors in marketing and dance, Fox is an emerging voice in the field of arts management and advocacy.
