Gina Duncan To Step Down As BAM President Later This Year
As president since 2022, Duncan has helped grow the institution and shepherded BAM out of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Gina Duncan will step down as president of The Brooklyn Academy of Music when her term ends in June. BAM's Board of Directors is forming a transition committee to help identify the famed arts organization's next leader.
As president since 2022, Duncan has helped grow the institution and shepherded BAM out of the COVID-19 pandemic. During her tenure, in partnership with the Board of Trustees, Duncan completed a strategic plan that charts a course to financial stability and broadens BAM's reach and impact. Over the last three years, BAM has increased the number of shows by 50% since pandemic times and increased audience attendance by 41%.
“As president, Gina's efforts have enhanced BAM's promise and fortified the institution's role as a premiere home for both established and emerging artists and a place welcoming to all audiences,” said BAM Board Chair Diane L. Max. “She leaves BAM well-positioned and poised for success for years to come.”
“There is no place quite like BAM, and it's been an incredible honor to serve as president during such a pivotal moment for our industry,” said BAM President Gina Duncan.
