FORT WORTH, TX.- The Amon Carter Museum announced that Sara Klein has joined its staff as the Teacher and School Programs Manager.

Klein is responsible for developing and implementing a broad range of programs designed to assist educators and students of all grade levels and disciplines to explore and understand the Carter’s collections and special exhibitions.

“Sara’s experience designing school tour programs and educator trainings will bring fresh insights to the Carter’s well-established, successful programs, elevating them to a higher level and allowing us to better serve the tens of thousands of teachers and students we reach each year,” says Stacy Fuller, the museum’s head of education.

Previous to the Carter, Klein was the education curator for tours and school programs at the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Okla. While there, she helped to develop, implement and assess K-12 collection-based curriculum and programs. She also coordinated and scheduled all tours and school programs for the museum. Klein has a bachelor’s degree in art history and French from Augustana College (Rock Island, Ill.) and a master’s degree in art history from Florida State University (Tallahassee, Fla.).

“I am very excited about joining the staff at the Carter,” says Klein. “The museum is a wonderful institution, and I look forward to working closely with the gallery teachers and other education department members.”
