In Memoriam
Kim Domanski (1972-2025)
Close Friend of AVAM
The Staff and Board of the American Visionary Art Museum are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Kinetic Sculpture Race legend and close friend of the museum, Kim Domanski.
Not only did she dedicate her career to championing the arts in Baltimore, Kim became a major character in the Kinetic Baltimore canon as one of the iconic trio of judges, alongside our other dear AVAM friends Luke Clippinger and her life partner Ed Istwan.
Her contagious positivity, fun-loving nature, and deep love for the arts will never be forgotten. ❤
