Kristin Poole Fund for Program Innovation

Support ambitious projects in and outside SVMoA

After 25 years of service to arts and culture in the Wood River Valley, Kristin Poole retired from her position as Artistic Director and Interim Executive Director in 2022 to pursue work as an independent curator and arts consultant. In her honor, SVMoA established the Kristin Poole Fund for Program Innovation: A fund to support ambitious projects that expand the reach of SVMoA, creating new opportunities for important artists, attracting non-traditional audiences to the Museum or introducing art about place—outside the space of the museum.

The purpose of this fund is to support:

Artist, audience and access advancement
Risk-taking
Art in non-traditional spaces or with non-traditional approaches
Ideas about place
Connections with new audiences
Cross-disciplinary work
Contribute to the Kristin Poole Fund for Program Innovation
