    “Brooke is an inspiring, engaging and proven leader, who can immediately elevate the Columbus Museum of Art  by every key measure — institutionally, curatorially, financially and reputationally,” said CMA Board President Pete Scantland. “She is deeply accomplished in institutional advancement, having fundraised extensively and engaged communities as varied as New Orleans, New York City, Miami and Cape Town. Her expertise, natural curiosity, intuition and leadership acumen will all combine to simultaneously preserve our revered community-centric Museum and raise its international profile, prospects and impact.”

    Most recently, Minto served as the inaugural executive director Black Trustee Alliance for Art Museums, based in New York City. Minto has also served as managing director of the Advisory Board for the Arts, in Washington D.C. and New York, and the interim co-director and director of institutional advancement at Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town, South Africa.

    “I am inspired and energized by the prospect of engaging a new cultural community rich with history and driven by excellence,” said Minto. “I am honored to lead an institution that is deeply embedded in its community, committed to positive social change and dedicated to nurturing creativity and imagination.”
