About Meredith Winner

I am a California-based art curator and producer. As the co-Founder of Building 180, my mission is to inspire change through art and to help artists maintain sustainable careers. In addition to producing public art installations and interiors across the globe, I served as Program Director for two Bay Area Artist-in-Residence programs. I\'ve spent the past 15 years dedicated to the arts working in a wide array of positions, deeply engrossed in my community. In 2020 I co-founded Paint The Void, a public mural initiative, coordinating the painting of nearly 200 murals on boarded storefronts in the wake of COVID-19. Most recently Building 180 was hired as the operational and curatorial partner for Big ArT Loop bringing up to 100 sculptures to San Francisco over the next 3 years. I\'m both an artist and arts facilitator; I hold a BFA in sculpture from Cornell University and a minor in art history.
