Dear Friends, The Brooklyn Museum! A hub for art, creativity, curiosity, learning, and inspiration;
Dear Friends, The Brooklyn Museum! A hub for art, creativity, curiosity, learning, and inspiration; a place that I love. I was honored to be appointed by the Museum’s Board ofTrustees as the next Shelby White and Leon Levy Director of the BrooklynMuseum, succeeding our beloved Arnold Lehman. Talk about inspiration! Arnoldinaugurated a transformational era at our Museum, withleadership that was defined by inclusion, compassion, diversity,courage, experimentation, and so much more. My promise to you is that this momentum will continue. Momentum starts with meeting you and hearing your views about how we can make even greater magic at the Brooklyn Museum. I want to hear it all—after all, we stand for nothing if not freedom of expression here in Brooklyn and at the Museum. Tune in to the experience—think of what you experience and how. I want to hear about what you love and what you don’t love, and how these experiences make you feel. I have been doing this a lotlately, and it is generating many exciting ideas about how we can adapt ourMuseum for its best and brightest possible future. Your participation will beinstrumental, and I thank you for all you have done and are doing to make ourdreams about our important work a reality. With your continued commitment,I know that we can achieve anything we set out to do. Great art and artists,and a loving family of visitors, are crucial to advancing our unique mission. Ilook forward to partnering with you to make even more magic happen—and I thankyou for so warmly embracing the Museum.See you in the galleries soon!AnnePasternakPhoto: © Timothy Greenfield-Sanders -- source link
