SHELDON MUSEUM OF ART
Randy Guthmiller appointed Associate Director for Learning, Engagement and Public Practice
We are pleased to announce the appointment of Randy Guthmiller to the position of Associate Director for Learning, Engagement, and Public Practice at Sheldon Museum of Art. Guthmiller was selected after a national search led by Suzanne Tan, senior search consultant at Museum Search & Reference.
A dedicated and passionate art museum professional, Randy has had significant work experience in both museum learning and the visitor experience at three major institutions in Texas. Most recently, he served as the Manager of Experiences and Programs at Ruby City in San Antonio, a contemporary community art center that opened to the public in 2019. Prior to that, Randy worked at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas, first as an educator and then as the Manager of Visitor Experiences, while also working for eight years as an artist educator at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Guthmiller holds a Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art and Education from Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Randy to Sheldon’s team,” said Susan Longhenry, Director of the Museum. “His uniquely integrated expertise in community engagement, academic engagement, and the visitor experience aligns perfectly with our commitment to centering and deeply engaging visitors and members of both academic and non-academic communities.”
Randy began his appointment in January 2025, joining a senior leadership team composed of the Museum’s Director and the newly hired Chief Curator and Associate Director for Curatorial Affairs.
