We reported last week on the rumored shake ups at the Corcoran — and tomorrow, news hungry D.C. art watchers will, hopefully, get some answers to questions on the troubled museum’s future. The Corcoran’s Board of Trustees met today, and the decisions made in that meeting will be announced to the public tomorrow at 9 a.m. What’s more notable is who will be announcing the decisions to the public. Museum President David Levy will be absent from the podium; instead, the 50 minute press conference will be held by the chairman and vice chairman of the museum, who will “update members of the media on new leadership and strategic planning decisions.” The press conference is RSVP only and will be held in the Corcoran’s Frances and Armand Hammer Auditorium. To RSVP, contact Liz Bradley, the museum’s Director of Media Relations, at (202) 639-1867 or lbradley (at) corcoran.org.
DCist expects that there’ll be plenty of big-picture talking points like “holistic long-range planning,” “It’s time for some fresh faces, fresh ideas,” “We’ve faced some difficult challenges” and the like. What do you think is going to be discussed?
