North Shore Bank is proud to present the Milwaukee Business Journal Power Breakfast with Dr. Kim Sajet.
Dr. Kim Sajet has had a globe-spanning career, including leading museums on two continents. As director of the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery, she doubled attendance, raised more than $85 million, and oversaw the commissioning of the Obamas' official portraits. The end of her 12 years at the Smithsonian made national headlines, as did her next opportunity: taking the helm of the Milwaukee Art Museum as the Donna and Donald Baumgartner director.
Join us on Wednesday, Nov. 18, when Dr. Sajet will sit down with the Business Journal to talk about her career, how an art historian with an MBA approaches running a major cultural institution, and what comes next, both for her and for the museum.
