Celebrating Women all Month (YEAR) Long
Anita Reinhard: A Trailblazing Curator of Arms and Armor | By John Byck
The Met Museum
Published 2023

"Anita Reinhard (1887–1985), assistant curator from 1927 until 1947. She joined the department in 1919 as secretary to Dean and in 1927 was promoted to assistant curator, becoming one of the first women to hold a curatorial position in an American museum.

Arts Leadership Institute 2023
There’s a fundraising project on the horizon…what happens now?
2023 ARTS LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE | Startup Sioux Falls
Registration open until April 18 | Reduced rate hotel until March 27

This year’s Arts Leadership Institute will be held in person April 25-26, 2023. Featuring sessions designed to support your fundraising efforts, dynamic trainers will work with arts leaders, staff, boards, and volunteers of non-profit creative organizations over two days at the new Startup Sioux Falls building.

Join for learning and opportunities to network with your colleagues, along with helpful resources and follow-up cohorts to help implement what you have learned. Find more information on this year’s sessions below.

For questions, please reach out to Community Development Director Andrew Reinartz at Andrew@ArtsSouthDakota.org.

WHAT IS THE ARTS LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE?

Amazing arts and culture projects are happening all across South Dakota, but we are spread out and often isolated from our colleagues. With this program, we want to help support those who are doing the critical work of fostering their local creative communities.

The institute provides multi-day deep dives into a changing set of topics of interest to many different types of arts organizations and their staff, volunteers, boards, and more. Equally important, it provides time to gather with your colleagues to help strengthen the arts ecosystem across the state.
