”UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — After seven years as director of the Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State, Erin M. Coe has accepted a new leadership position as executive director of the Rockwell Museum (a Smithsonian Affiliate) in Corning, New York. Her last day at the Palmer will be Nov. 30. The University will launch a national search for a new director in the coming months.
“Throughout her tenure, Erin has demonstrated an unwavering vision for the Palmer Museum of Art,” said B. Stephen Carpenter II, Michael J. and Aimee Rusinko Kakos Dean in the College of Arts and Architecture. “Under her guidance, the Palmer has transformed from a respected regional university art museum into a visionary arts and cultural asset of national and international visibility.”
Coe, who also serves as associate clinical professor in the College of Arts and Architecture, was at the forefront of the University’s initiative to construct a new state-of-the-art building for the Palmer Museum located in the Arboretum at Penn State. The 73,000-square-foot museum, designed by Allied Works, opened its doors to the public on June 1 and has had unprecedented attendance in the first quarter — 40,819 visitors as of Oct. 20 versus approximately 30,000 per year in the previous location. She has provided transformative leadership reenvisioning the museum’s mission and goals, as well as the strategic direction of the Palmer, which celebrated its 50th anniversary as Penn State's university art museum.”
