My Black History Month Journey of Celebrating Women in the Arts: Day 3 - Thelma Golden

  • Director and Chief Curator of The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York City, USA
  • In 1991, Thelma took a position at the Whitney Museum of American Art, one of the nation's premier art institutions. Golden used her position to open up the museum to previously under-represented artists including women and people of color.
  • Golden serves on the Graduate Committee at the Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College, is on the boards of Creative Time in New York and the Institute of International Visual Arts (inIVA) in London, and is a Henry Crown Fellow at the Aspen Institute.

Grab a coffee and hang out with Thelma  - her TED talk from 2009 is here:
