“I came to the museum because of a shared passion for serving the city, its people and its environment with a broader impact on social justice,” says Keehner, who grew up on Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights. “It’s an organization that is adept at envisioning how places can heal, restore and reimagine the physical and social fabric of our urban spaces.”’
