Kelly Baum, the director of the Des Moines Art Center, has been admitted to the Association of Art Museum Directors, according to a news release. Baum’s membership will let her collaborate with colleagues on issues confronting art museums and best practices, the Art Center said. “I am thrilled to join AAMD and partner with other museum directors from Canada, Mexico and the United States,” Baum said in a prepared statement. “AAMD is more than a professional organization: it is also a peer network, a brain trust and a pacesetter that responds proactively to the most pressing challenges and greatest opportunities facing art museums today.” Baum joined the Art Center in 2023 after working as a curator in Texas, New Jersey and New York.
