Troy Knight, director Vaco Design & Media, has been named to the Contemporary Art Foundation’s Board of Directors.
Knight will assist the board in setting the strategic direction to raise the additional capital required to transform the site and create and maintain a museum home for the Contemporary Art Museum.
The primary goal for the Contemporary Art Foundation (CAF) is to oversee the establishment of the museum in downtown Raleigh, but the foundation plans to continue its support for contemporary arts beyond this current project.
The Contemporary Art Museum was established in 1983 in Raleigh as the City Gallery of Contemporary Art. In 2006, the museum merged with the North Carolina State University College of Design to provide unique opportunities for study and has since broadened its vision to include the exploration of the intersections of art and science, technology and design.
CAF is the sole owner of the property of the future home for the Contemporary Art Museum, scheduled to open in the spring of 2010.
