My Board of Directors has from time to time discussed having a committee of
the Board for Art Exhibitions (not collections or acquisitions--this is
separate and already exists).  I believe that this is a staff role at a
private, not-for-profit art museum and not a Board function.  I understand
that University Art Museums often have this committee because of the
academic part of their mission.  I'd like to know about other non-university
art museum experiences with this issue.  Do you have this type of committee?
What do they do, and what is their job description?  What are the pros and
cons?  If you have a Board committee, how do you avoid micromanagement?  I
would appreciate any input.
