The Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts lost its interim director this weekend after laying off most of its staff in December. Its interim director, Derek Jentzsch, stepped down this past weekend, writing that the cultural center “cannot afford to pay” for his part-time contract. Jentzsch, founder of Broderick Haight Consulting, a nonprofit consulting firm, assumed the role at the cultural center earlier this month. “No money was received or ever will be,” Jentzsch wrote in an email on Wednesday. Jentzsch’s experience, his connections to nonprofits and the arts and his willingness to take the position is what led to his selection as interim director, Sanchez said last week.
