Julia Forbes is the Shannon Landing Amos Head of Museum Interpretation at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia. She manages the development of all materials (docent-led tours, audio tours, interpretive gallery tools, labels, mobile technologies, etc.) used by visitors to learn about the Museum’s permanent collection and special exhibitions, including the Greene Family Learning Gallery. Julia has held education positions at the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery, Washington National Cathedral, the Walters Art Museum, and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. She has developed exhibitions in a team setting and participated in the creation of interactive spaces for families in a wide range of museum settings. She served as the Eastern Region Director in the Education Division of the National Art Education Association, is the vice president of the Association for Art Museum Interpretation and was honored as the Eastern Museum Educator of the Year for 1998. She has degrees in Art History and Cultural Anthropology from the University of California at Santa Barbara and a master’s degree from the George Washington University in Art History/Museum Training. Forbes has over thirty years of experience in developing activities for families in a dedicated space. From the National Museum of American History’s Hands on History Room, to Washington National Cathedral’s Cathedral Medieval Workshop and two iterations of the High Museum’s Greene Family Learning Gallery, she has deep expertise in thinking about how intergenerational learning and play impact children and their caregivers in the museum setting. Forbes has presented on this topic at all the major museums conferences and was one of the leads on the IMLS funded study “Family Learning in Interactive Galleries” published online in 2011.

Lauderdale, FL., served as National Principal's Initiative co-coordinator for the summer 1995 Teacher Institute at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., and taught public and private school K-12, high school literature and composition, middle and high school art, and middle school social studies.
