Nuestro Kimbell (Our Kimbell) was established in 2016 by a founding committee of civic and community leaders. The original mandate focused on developing Spanish-language resources as well as promotional and engagement strategies to cultivate audiences that reflect the rich cultural diversity of north Texas. Today, Nuestro Kimbell committee stakeholders continue to serve in a vital capacity, advising and helping to shape the museum’s ongoing efforts to foster meaningful, inclusive, and accessible museum experiences for all.
