Meet Your ARCS Board Member
This week we would like to introduce you to Board member John Robinette.
I attended the University of Texas at Austin and received a degree in art history with a minor in business. I spent 3 years at the Blanton Museum of Art as a researcher in the Latin American department as well as an art handler with the installation crew. I later spent time vagabonding around the world in a band whilst installing artwork in galleries and residences throughout New York. When it came time to put down my drumsticks, I settled into my current position at the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros in 2010. As the Manager of Storage and Installation, I oversee all storage facilities and locales where the family maintain their collection and handle most of the logistics for their extensive international loan program. Besides my work on the ARCS Board, I also head the Marketing Committee and co-host the monthly #ARCSchat on Twitter.
Mentorship Program
The RCS Mentoring Program (a joint collaboration between ARCS and the Collections Stewardship professional network of AAM) is accepting applications for both Mentors and Mentees to be matched in Summer 2018 for a 6 month time period. The mentoring relationship is a mutually rewarding experience that offer opportunities for professional growth and development throughout all career stages.
