Margaret Footner

Margaret Footner is a co-founder of the Creative Alliance which spawned at Halcyon Gallery at Margaret’s Cafe in 1995. Ms. Footner owned and operated Margaret’s as a café/gallery from 1992-2000 before selling her restaurant to work full time as Executive Director for the Creative Alliance. The Creative Alliance's structure as community-based arts non-profit linked to area businesses and neighborhood organizations is in part the result of Ms. Footner's vision. Margaret is now working on expanding that vision by working on the new Creative Alliance Creativity Center project.

Ms. Footner has a Bachelor of Arts in English from Goucher College and M.Ed. from Loyola College.
