A few local ventures are expressing interest in renting space in the former synagogue on Wellington Row–and the Multicultural Association of Saint John’s executive director Melana Iverson tells CHSJ News they’re providing more valuable services that some other bidders, including a fashion modelling school that has also described the space as ideal for their purposes.
Iverson presented at last night’s meeting of common council about the challenges of running the association, and the support she needs from council to keep her efforts going.
She says the space would allow them to roll our programs that would benefit the entire community–not simply newcomers.
