Peggy Dougherty-Gora of Rio Grande, is the Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts & Humanities (MAC) Volunteer of the Month for June. MAC Director Michael Zuckerman nominated Peggy for her work with MAC’s Museum Division. Since retiring as Deputy Director of the Newark Museum and moving to the Cape May area, Peggy has become an active volunteer with MAC’s Museum Division. Besides bringing her professional expertise to bear as a member of the Restoration & Collections Committee, she has partnered with MAC volunteer Jill Bellarmino in the major project to take a digital photograph of every one of the 6,000 artifacts in MAC’s Physick House museum collection. Moreover, Peggy has become MAC’s ambassador to her new neighbors in the Legacy of Cape May complex, writing a splendid article on MAC and the Physick Estate for the condo newsletter. MAC benefits from the expertise of members of the community in a variety of ways. The Volunteer of the Month award is given to a person who demonstrates a high degree of dedication, commitment and constancy to MAC’s volunteer program.
