The Sherbino staff team consists of four salaried part-time employees plus an hourly bartender and a few contractors.

None of what we do here at The Sherbino would be possible without our very small but very dedicated part-time salaried staff of four (Yes, only four! Yes, all are part time!) who run over 140 programs a year, including our large scale events like Fete de la Musique and Ridgway1k/San Juan Barrel Fest. Our staff members all come with decades of experience and diverse skills that set our programs apart. We’ll feature some of their accomplishments in future newsletters but at a glance, this is our small but passionate staff:

Ashley King- Grambley: Our Executive Director with over 24 years of experience as a rural arts E.D.  and another 5 professional years in programming and event planning. You are just as likely to see Ashley greeting you at the door as you are to see her at her desk making sure everything from our budget to our graphics are all fine tuned to perfection. She’s our leader and visionary, our grant-writer, our bookkeeper, our graphic designer, our space-maker, and she even employs her green thumb to make our outdoor spaces and entries the loveliest in town!  Ashley also serves as the Executive Director of Weehawken Creative Arts (for 16 years now!)

Derek Jones: If you have been to a concert in the Sherbino since 2021- you most likely have heard Derek’s superb audio mixing skills and have enjoyed every minute of it. We have so many patrons remark that they’ve never heard music sound better! Before moving to Ouray County in 2018, Derek worked as a recording engineer in some of Los Angeles’ top commercial recording studios.  Early in his career he assisted in recording sessions for artists including Prince, Daft Punk, Billy Ray Cyrus, Rush, Van Halen, Justin Beiber, and many others. He and his wife Kate are proud parents of their baby daughter.

Anna Quickle: Newest to our team, our delightful bar manager, Anna Quickle.  Anna hails originally from Ohio, but she’s been making friends behind the bar in Ridgway for a few years now.

Fabiola Ramiraz: Fabiola is a beloved asset who comes and keeps us tidy and looking pretty each week (contractor). She has been a great help to our team. If you’re looking for a cleaning person, please reach out to Fabioloa at  fabiolaramiraz073@gmail.com

Marisa Murphy: Marisa has been processing our payroll, paying our sales tax and reconciling our books since 2014. She has been a great friend to the organization over the years
