Drews comes to the MIA from the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC), where she was Vice President of Development. There she fielded the $412 million campaign for the new Modern Wing, which opened in May 2009.
At the MIA, Drew will manage the museum's departments of Development & Membership, Marketing & Communications, and Community Relations.
This addition comes just two months after the MIA announced layoffs to its staff, including membership director Ann Benrud.
