Kimball Art Center Announces New Executive Director Lindsie Smith

June 28, 2017 by Kimball Art Center

Smith Comes to the Kimball Art Center from Clark Planetarium

Park City, UT – Kimball Art Center (KAC) is proud to welcome Lindsie Smith as its new Executive Director who will help lead the organization as it continues to inspire and connect the Utah community through art. Smith’s first day will be Monday, July 10, 2017.

Smith most recently served as the Associate Director of Clark Planetarium where she managed day-to-day operations, mentored staff and served as the organization’s public spokesperson. She also helped develop and monitor the Planetarium’s annual budget, fundraised for key programs and supervised significant capital improvements. She joined Clark Planetarium in 2012 and oversaw the Planetarium’s Marketing and Development, Operations and Education Departments. Smith began her marketing career in the finance industry, working for both Zions Bank and Fidelity Investments. In 2006, she moved to the nonprofit sector as the Director of Communications for Junior Achievement of Utah before moving on to Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum. Smith has broad nonprofit experience ranging from programmatic strategy to audience development and board relations. Smith received her Bachelor of Arts from University of Wyoming and her Leadership and Management Certificate from the University of Utah.

About her new role, Smith said, “I am thrilled to join the Kimball Art Center. I look forward to working with the staff and board to continue the legacy of excellence of this dynamic organization. With a rich history, the KAC plays a unique and profound role in the arts. The classes inspire artists young and old, the annual Kimball Arts Festival brings together artists and the community for an incredible celebration of art, and the Center offers spectacular exhibits that enrich the cultural fabric of Park City and beyond. It is an exciting time to be joining the Kimball Art Center as we plan for a new facility that will allow us to expand our ability to inspire and connect through art. As summarized so aptly by our slogan, ‘Art Starts Here’ and I’m excited to start.”

Maggie AbuHaidar, Kimball Art Center Board Chair, said, “We’re thrilled that Lindsie Smith will be our new Executive Director. Her accomplishments in the nonprofit world and her local Utah connections are just what we were hoping to find to help the Kimball grow while remaining true to our mission. Lindsie is a special talent that will lead this long-running Park City institution into an exciting new future. We welcome her to the Park City community with open arms.”
