Jody Clowes is the director of the Academy's James Watrous Gallery and arts editor for Wisconsin People & Ideas magazine. Her experience developing and curating exhibits, designing public programs, and writing about art includes senior positions at Milwaukee Art Museum, Detroit's Pewabic Pottery, and the UW-Madison's Design Gallery. Jody's exhibition projects often emphasize connections across disciplines, from environmental concerns to social and economic history, technological change, and the history of craft.
She has a B.A. in Art and Art History from Rutgers University and an M.A. in material culture studies from the University of Delaware's Winterthur Museum program. An eclectic reader, mad gardener, and stubbornly improvisational cook, she is happiest with her hands in the dirt.
