Rockport Center for the Arts (RCA) is pleased to announce the appointment of a new education coordinator, Kathleen Clark, to begin January 4, 2022.

Born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley, Kathleen has always had a strong interest in arts advocacy and community engagement.  She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Music with a minor in Music History from the University of the Incarnate Word, where she developed a passion for arts administration.  Kathleen recently graduated with a Master of Arts in Arts Leadership from the University of Houston.  She completed her practicum at The Art Museum of South Texas in Corpus Christi, reimagining how museums engage with their community.  Kathleen strives to create meaningful art experiences that are inclusive of diverse communities. 

“We are excited to welcome Kathleen to our team.  She brings a contemporary perspective in arts leadership paired with valuable hands-on experience creating, advertising and facilitating arts programming in fellow arts organizations to her new post” said Karen Ernst, deputy director for RCA.   “Kathleen’s drive for engaging communities and creating meaningful art experiences will be a valuable asset as we expand existing programming and open our new campus in 2022.”
