Arianna Ordway

Arianna has been involved with the Tamburitzan culture and lifestyle her entire life. Arianna joined her first Junior Tamburitzan group at the age of three and performed with numerous folk groups in the Pittsburgh area. Arianna completed three years on stage with the Tamburitzans while studying at Duquesne University and graduated with a B.A. in Psychology and Sociology in 2019. 

Arianna began as the Lead Project Manager for our wardrobe department in 2023 but is no stranger to costuming. Arianna began working with costumes around the age of ten and has assisted with organizing and dressing various folk groups in the Pittsburgh area since. During her time in the ensemble, Arianna assisted with taking care of wardrobe on the road and educating her peers on costume care and repairs. Together with the Executive Director, Artistic Director, board and community, Arianna is dedicated to preserving the Tamburitzan ensemble for many years to come!
