Description
Carrie Kim, former curator of education and public programming of the Oklahoma State University Museum of Art (OSUMA), shares her experiences growing up in Fredonia, Wisconsin where she describes her childhood as idyllic until her middle and high school years when instances of harassment began to start as she searched for who she was. She also discusses her experiences in higher education at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design and the University of Wisconsin before settling into a string of jobs in Milwaukee involving education and art. Kim explains how these experiences eventually led her to the OSUMA in 2014 and talks about the ways she tried to make the museum a welcoming and important place for the LGBTQ+ community on campus.
