Boise, Idaho native Katie Woslager is the new Grants and Endowment Manager for the Utah Division of Arts and Museums. Woslager, who joins the Division with a background in management, human resources, and sales, will play an integral role in the development and roll-out of the Division’s new online grants system.

“As we move into an online grants management system as part of our technology initiative, Katie clearly displayed the right mix of experience and skills needed to lead the program. She has a natural professional rapport with the technology team, and she is at ease working with constituents. I am confident she will be of great assistance in moving the program forward into the digital age,” said Margaret Hunt, Director of the Utah Division of Arts and Museums.

“When I first found out about the position, I realized that it offered a great opportunity to help make this program more effective and accessible for our constituents,” said Woslager. “I am looking forward to taking this program’s strong foundation and developing a program that is open, accessible, and that the Division can rely on.”

Katie Woslager grew up in Boise and attended Boise State University where she studied business administration, management, and human resources. Prior to joining the Division, Woslager was Operations Manager for Novo1/Sturner & Klein, worked in personnel administration at Micron Technology, and volunteered at food banks, animal shelters, as well as for a community revitalization organization.

This position, which oversees the Division’s grant application, approval, and distribution process, was formerly filled by Sherry Waddingham. Waddingham retired after working for over 30 years with the State of Utah .
