Co-directors of museum step down

BOULDER – Penny Barnow and Joan Markowitz have ended their tenures as co-executive directors at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art.

“When they joined the museum five years ago, they had intended to stay about that length of time,´ said Andrew Burwick, vice president on the museum’s board of directors.

“We’re sorry to see them go, but they’ve always had this time frame in mind. It’s a very demanding job, and five years is a nice stint. They’ve been able to accomplish a lot during that time period.”
