Meet Our Board – Robert Stevens

First introduced to the Master Singers of Milwaukee in 2014, Robert immediately recognized the tremendous value of this long-standing Milwaukee tradition and its integral place in the vibrant arts community it serves. Over the years, he has had the pleasure of working with the amazing musicians and leaders of the MSM on a variety of projects, both as a singer and volunteer, solidifying his passion for the awe-inspiring work the organization has done since its founding to advance the arts and foster diversity and inclusiveness throughout the community.

For over two decades, Robert has provided expert leadership and guidance to a multitude of nonprofit organizations throughout southeastern Wisconsin by capitalizing on his diverse background in arts advocacy, organizational development, and public relations/marketing. Robert’s passion for helping organizations to realize their full potential and implement dynamic new methods for marketing and fundraising is praised by his contemporaries for rethinking the way nonprofits engage their community.

With a passion for embracing diverse cultural influences and fostering an inclusive working environment, Robert hopes to bring that cooperative spirit to his new role. Robert is honored to join the Master Singers of Milwaukee’s talented and diverse team of leaders and is looking forward to the challenge of advancing their time-honored organization to ever-new heights.
