		<description>Good post. You make some great points that most people do not fully understand.

"to the extraordinary Walker staff (whose creative brilliance, can-do spirit, and ethical maturity were focused on a larger good that made me look good); and most importantly, to the artists (who gave me the confidence to search for my own inner voice by daring to reveal so much). Honestly, this was a position that allowed us, friends, to collectively learn from each other about all the ways in which art has meaning and matters. I am honored to have had such privilege and to have enjoyed such freedom. In return, I hope I have been a good citizen and a decent person."

I like how kathy explained that. Very helpful. Thanks.</description>

		<description>We "rejoined" the Walker after participating in the expanded community outreach inspired by Kathy Halbreich and realizing that we missed that closer connection with our nationally recognized art center.  Kathy's leadership style is so welcoming...she models a respect for community members, their ideas and questions, and the ability to motivate others in service to the Walker mission.  We have enjoyed her knowledgeable presence and artistic guidance at Walker events and find ourselves wondering what will the Walker be like without Kathy's steady hand.  It will be fun to see where Kathy lands and begins her next artistic adventure.  We know she will extend much support and gracious generosity to the newly named Walker Director Olga Viso.  Thanks for letting us join scores of other patrons in accessing this web site to say our own "thanks Kathy for everything you've done for us in Minneapolis!"  Our best to you and your family in what is sure to be a bright future.                       -Mary Ann Nelson and James Van Houten</description>
