Brittany Johnson is an arts administrator from Houston, Texas.
Brittany made her way to Northwest Arkansas to join the team at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art where she served as the Communications and Marketing department’s first email marketing manager before joining the Interpretation team, and including the Momentary in her scope of work. With the Interpretation team, she developed 21 exhibitions in two years and worked with curators to keep the museum’s permanent collection—more than 500 years of American art—inspiring and engaging for museum guests. She additionally oversaw the museum’s efforts to become fully bilingual, working with translators and museum stakeholders to create and solidify the language used to describe the museum and it’s offerings in Spanish. Finally, she aditionally led DEAI efforts on behalf of the museum and helped found the museum's first Black and African-American staff resource group.
She has held positions at Houston Arts Alliance (Houston, Texas), Mexic-Arte Museum (Austin, Texas), and SFMOMA (San Francisco, California). She is the editor of the MMIAM Journey, an online journal for international arts management, a member of the Fayetteville Public Library’s Public Art Committee, and Capacity Building Co-Chair for the Creative States Coalition.
Brittany has a Masters in International Arts Management from SMU in (Dallas, USA), HEC Montréal (Montreal, Canada), and Universitá Boconni (Milan, Italy) and another n Journalism from the University of Texas at Austin.
Brittany is the owner of Ambivert Books, the state of Arkansas' only Spanish language bookshop. In her free time, she is a reader (and talking about books), live music enthusiast, aspiring podcast host, and avid language learner. Brittany speaks Spanish and French, and can be found forgetting to complete her German and Italian lessons—the Duolingo owl is frequently disappointed.
