Christy Frank is an art curator, community advocate, and photographer based in the Twin Cities. Her love for the arts began as a child. From a young age she was drawn to music and dance, and spent most of her childhood pursuing both. That love evolved into a dedicated pursuit of art history, culminating in a degree from St. Catherine University. 

Christy enriched her academic foundation with hands-on experience. She interned at several Minneapolis galleries, and was accepted into FAD (Fostering Arts and Design) in Barcelona, Spain, a prestigious institution renowned in the global arts scene. This international exposure broadened her perspective and solidified her desire to work in the arts.

Through her extensive local network and ties to the art community, Christy has curated countless art shows, collaborating closely with a diverse array of local artists. Her curatorial skills are highly regarded, and she is known for her dedication to promoting and nurturing artistic talent within her community. As founding curator, you can see Christy's latest exhibit at the Kickernick Gallery in Downtown Minneapolis.
