The Museum Leadership Institute at Claremont Graduate University (MLI@CGU), California, United States, is an educational program that brings museum professionals, board members, academics, philanthropists and public officials together for continued professional development.[1] Supported by the Getty Foundation, it was founded as the Getty Leadership Institute at Claremont Graduate University in 1979.[2]

History

Former LACMA President Melody Kanschat was appointed the new executive director of GLI in April 2013.[3] Antoniette Guglielmo, an art historian and educator who worked at LACMA, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the J. Paul Getty Museum, was appointed Assistant Director in August 2013.[4]

In September 2019, MLI @ CGU was awarded a $484,000 grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) to launch a new online mentoring network for museum professionals called Polaris.[5]
