Molly Surno is an artist and curator using her eclectic background to create dynamic and community driven cultural programs. Graduating with an MFA in Visual Art at Columbia University, she blends art, film, music, food, and technology to create performances and happenings. We of Me, her large scale sound performance, was exhibited at the Getty Museum in 2017, and to date this was the Getty?s most ambitious performance as part of their efforts to bring in new audiences through creative programming. Molly has also been a resident of Recess, Pioneer Works, Steeprock Arts, and Watershed. In 2008 she founded her nomadic performance series Cinema 16, which pairs contemporary musicians with experimental films, and has shown at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Kitchen, MoMA/PS1, and Museum of Moving Image among others. She has worked for the team that created TEDx and as the first Outreach Director for Kickstarter. She now consults on cultural research, curating, and creative programming for brands and organizations such as Kickstarter, Spotify, Neuehouse, Sonos, Clif Bar, MANGO, and WhatShouldWeDo. Today she’s sharing five things she finds inspiring with us for Friday Five. Photo by Molly Surno
