Coming all the way from Minneapolis to Woodbury, Tara Moughan wanted to get involved in her new “hometown”. Pairing a love for the arts, cause marketing experience and relentless stamina... The FAF was born. In its 7-year existence, The FAF Coalition has become a driving force for creative placemaking in Woodbury and in Southern New Jersey, including innovative programs such as Rock the Woo, LOT 323 & GATHER. Tara is one of the original founders of “The FAF” and a founding board member of The FAF Coalition. Sitting down with the mastermind behind this incredible community-building project right in downtown Woodbury was such a pleasure.
