Join ARENA DANCES for our weekly Studio Stories podcast, where each week we reminisce on Twin Cities dance history with a new special guest. This week, we hear from John Killacky.
John Killacky, known to many of us as the Curator of Performing Arts from 1988 to 1996 at the Walker Art Center, moved on to become the Executive Director of Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Program Officer for arts and culture at San Francisco Foundation, Executive Director of Flynn Center for the Performing Arts, and now serving in the Vermont House of Representatives.
Our Studio Stories is truly a shimmering glimpse into all John has accomplished and his impact on communities. You can learn more by reading his newly released book: because art. A concise collection of essays and interviews, Killacky offers behind-the-scenes perspectives on his decades of arts administration, and his own struggle to deal with physical limitations.
Tune in this Thursday, February 3 at 12:00pm to hear John’s studio story.
