Grace Kim
Artistic Operations Assistant
Grace Kim is a passionate arts administrator, French horn player, and advocate for access and equity in classical music.
A Hawaiʻi native and first-generation college graduate, Grace’s journey in music was shaped by the support of community programs, scholarships, and mentors who opened doors to opportunities she once thought unreachable. These early experiences continue to inform her belief in the transformative power of the arts and the importance of inclusive, community-driven work.
Grace has held roles with organizations such as the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Marlboro Music Festival, and Kaleidoscope Chamber Orchestra, where she has contributed to artistic planning, development, and marketing. She brings a collaborative spirit and detail-oriented approach to every project, from coordinating concert production logistics to supporting audience engagement.
Grace completed her musical education in French Horn Performance from the University of Southern California, University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and the Eastman School of Music.
Outside of work, Grace enjoys attending live jazz shows, drinking matcha/coffee, and volunteering at local nonprofit organizations.
