During the fall of 2019, the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts welcomed nearly 9,000 visitors, a 151 percent increase over the previous year. Museum leaders point to a focus on diversity, including the "Black Refractions" exhibit and an upcoming focus on women artists, as one of the reasons for that growth. In this week's Community Conversation, Newschannel 3 anchor Lora Painter talks with KIA Executive Director Belinda Tate and the museum's chief curator, Rehema Barber, about the exhibits, women artists and the future of art in the region. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wwmt/message
