ANNE BERGERON

Anne Bergeron believes in the power of the arts and humanities to positively influence contemporary society; she has devoted her professional career to ensuring a vibrant, healthy cultural sector that respects the past as a way of informing the future. For 25 years, she has helped nonprofit organizations to create financial stability and build engaged communities by refining their internal operations, expanding their outreach to constituents and increasing their philanthropic support. She specializes in resource development – a synthesis of fundraising, operational planning and organizational development – in the public sector fields of arts, design, education and historic preservation. She has led the planning for programmatic and capital initiatives, and assisted organizations in creating and implementing viable operating and fundraising plans that help to sustain their futures. In support of these efforts, she has consistently raised leadership gifts from individuals and institutions alike.

Anne works with a variety of organizations across the country, with a concentration in New York and New England. A partial list of her museum clients has included Historic New England; Judd Foundation; Frank Lloyd Wright Conservancy for the Ruth and Russell Kraus House; Metropolitan Waterworks Museum, Inc.; Saint Louis Art Museum; U.S. Biennial, Inc.; and World Monuments Fund.

Before starting her own firm, Anne held senior management posts at diverse cultural and educational organizations, such as the National Writer’s Voice Project, where she managed the national expansion of a local literary arts program; the Missouri Arts Council, where she oversaw the programmatic development of a $200 million statewide cultural trust fund; and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, where she secured national landmark status for its historic building and multi-million dollar funding towards its exterior restoration. She has led fundraising workshops for her clients, the Guggenheim Museum’s internship program and the Bank Street Museum Education Leadership graduate program, among others. Anne is a Visiting Practitioner at Georgetown University Center for Public and Nonprofit Management, where she is collaborating with her Museum Group colleague, Beth Tuttle, on a research project exploring the characteristics of high-performing museums.

A native of Connecticut, Anne holds a Bachelor of Arts in English from Trinity College and an executive certificate in nonprofit management from Georgetown University. She is a trustee of ArtTable and a member of the American Association of Museums and the Association of Fundraising Professionals. She and her husband were recognized by the State of Missouri for restoring an architecturally significant mid-century home designed by Harris Armstrong in St. Louis.
