Cultural Leadership Breakfast, October 9, 2014


Be among the first to welcome Melissa Chiu to D.C. as she assumes the role of director at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden. The Australian-born former head of New York’s Asia Society Museum is here just in time to celebrate the Hirshhorn’s 40th anniversary.

Chiu’s hiring marks a new direction for the Hirshhorn, which was plagued by controversy under former director Richard Koshalek. She comes into the role as an able fundraiser with a strong background in the arts, particularly those from the Asia-Pacific. We are excited to hear and ask questions about how the Hirshhorn will grow, evolve and thrive under her leadership.
