We’re excited to share that Phil Cunningham is our Blue Ribbon Recipient of the Month. The Blue Ribbon recognizes a staff member, volunteer or intern who has demonstrated great dedication and outstanding performance at Arts at the Armory. 

Launching ROOTED has been a team effort but frankly there would be no ROOTED without Phil. Since the start of his volunteer service with Arts at the Armory, Phil has been with us at every turn of improving our financial processes, navigating the financial waters of COVID, and more. His work on the backend of our point of sale system for ROOTED has been indispensable. Thank you and congratulations Phil! 

Though Phil was born in NYC, Massachusetts has been home for most of his life. He moved to Cambridge about 5 years ago after working for Refugee NGO in the Middle East and East Africa. For the last 5 years he worked at Harvard in finance and is now doing some volunteer work as he looks for a new position.
