FORT WORTH, Texas – The Amon Carter Museum of American Art announce that Marci Driggers Caslin has been promoted to registrar. She joined the museum’s staff as exhibition coordinator in March. In her new position, Caslin oversees the registrar’s department, coordinates traveling exhibitions and manages outgoing loans.

Previous to the Carter, Caslin worked as the registrar for loans and exhibitions at the Dallas Museum of Art for nearly five years. While there, she was responsible for the coordination of more than 10 exhibitions and organized traveling exhibitions, installation of works from the permanent collection and outgoing loans. Caslin also was on the staff at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, where she served as an associate registrar, and worked at the Galería de Arte Isabel Aninat in Santiago, Chile.

“To work at such a premiere museum is an amazing opportunity,” Caslin says. “I look forward to helping the Carter fulfill its mission of exhibiting the finest examples of American art.”

The Amon Carter Museum was established through the generosity of Amon G. Carter Sr. (1879–1955) to house his collection of paintings and sculpture by Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell; to collect, preserve, and exhibit the finest examples of American art; and to serve an educational role through exhibitions, publications, and programs devoted to the study of American art.
