Spencer Jansen

Spencer Jansen has been building and engaging membership, annual support, and affinity groups at the Museum since 2014.

In his role as Deputy Director, he continues developing membership while overseeing the guest experience areas of the Museum Store, restaurant programming, box office operations, and data management systems. He “looks forward to creating a truly welcoming and remarkable experience for guests” at the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts.

Jansen grew up in the classrooms and galleries of the Arkansas Arts Center, which fostered his love for the arts and led him to pursue a fine arts degree from Lyon College. After college, he served as the programming and outreach coordinator for the Arkansas Prostate Cancer Foundation. He continued to pursue his creative passions as a studio artist while working as a consultant on Raiser’s Edge for various nonprofits and as a photographer for multiple publications.

Jansen was recently featured in two books: Museum Membership Innovation by Rosie Siemer highlights his work in membership, and Fly Fishing for the Soul: Tales of a White River Guide by Hank Wilson features his photography.
