Meeghan Kane
Public Programs Coordinator
Bio
Meeghan Kane oversees public programming at the museum. In her role, she develops and coordinates events, supports and fosters community partnerships with fellow cultural institutions and organizations, and assists in the museum’s ongoing efforts to Reimagine the Experience. Her work intersects with all the museum’s departments, so she has learned a lot since she began in May 2022.
Prior to joining the museum team, Kane taught history at Benedict College for over a decade, where she specialized in African American history, 20th century cultural history, and the history of the American South. She moved to Columbia, South Carolina, from Tampa, Florida, in 2006 to join USC’s graduate program in history after completing her B.A. and M.A. at the University of South Florida.
These days, if she’s not at the museum, you’ll likely find her and partner watching their teenage daughter play volleyball at Dreher or in regional tournaments for SC Midlands Volleyball Club. But her family also enjoys camping in state parks, nice meals in local restaurants, day trips to the mountains, and adventures back home to Florida.
