The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) Appoints Kelsey Shell as MOCA’s Environmental & Sustainability Strategist
A+CA co-founder Kelsey Shell has been named MOCA's Environmental & Sustainability Strategist, a first-of-its-kind position in a United States museum. The MOCA Environmental Council, an advisory group focused on climate, conservation, and environmental justice in support of the museum's mission, is funding the position. As Environmental & Sustainability Strategist, Shell's responsibilities include working on all facets of sustainability, climate and environmental justice programming, and environmentally focused exhibitions. Shell brings more than a decade of experience to MOCA, having previously served as Director of Public Art at Zlot Buell + Associates and co-founding the Gallery Climate Coalition (GCC) Los Angeles. This news makes it clear: our institutions' and associations' leaders are ready to move the sustainability standards and practices we need forward. Congratulations to Kelsey, the MOCA Environmental Council, and everyone at the Museum for charting a course that will bring one of our most esteemed California institutions into greater ecological harmony with its systems, bioregion, and community.
