We will speak with the creator of the cultural event that will take place tonight at the Met Museum Mrs. Rubie Britt-Height.

Rubie R. Britt-Height has been the Director of Community Relations for The Mint Museum since 2008.  She initiates and manages opportunities to collaborate with culturally diverse community groups, businesses and other organizations to promote art exhibitions and programs.   She manages audience development through education and outreach initiatives, represents the Mint at public speaking engagements and serves as an arts ambassador with an emphasis on underserved and underrepresented populations, but her outreach includes numerous diverse groups.  She also founded the Romare Bearden Society at the Mint, which has acquired and gifted 3 major works of art to the Museum.

Her main diversity programs are the Grier Heights Youth Arts Program, now in its 11th year, and Mint to Move Cultural Dance Night, held quarterly at the Mint Museum Uptown at the Levine Center for the Arts.
