APPOINTMENT
Oram Hotels has announced the appointment of Jennifer Findley as its first Director of Arts & Culture for its San Diego properties, Granger Hotel and The Guild.
Findley is the founder of La Jolla-based JFiN Collective and has worked as an art advisor on international projects. In her new position, she will work closely with Oram Hotels co-founder Kevin Mansour to establish a coordinated arts initiative across both properties. The focus of this initiative is to create opportunities for cultural exchange through programming that brings together local and visiting artists.
The approach includes the introduction of artist residencies, public-facing community programs, and collaborations with cultural and academic institutions. Through this, Granger Hotel and The Guild are expected to function not only as hospitality spaces but also as venues where art and cultural engagement are part of the experience.
As part of the upcoming schedule, the hotels will begin a collaboration with UC San Diego’s Stuart Collection. The first residency under this partnership is planned to feature Los Angeles-based sculptor Max Hooper Schneider in November.
Findley’s role involves shaping how cultural content is presented across the two properties and developing partnerships that connect San Diego’s creative community with broader audiences.
