Adam Kullberg (he/him) is a nonprofit leader, educator, and artist with over a decade of experience helping communities connect and thrive through the power of creativity and self-expression. Originally from Texas, Adam found his calling in arts education and nonprofits while earning his MFA at the University of Arizona. There, he taught writing, volunteered with humanitarian and arts organizations, and became deeply passionate about making the arts more accessible for people of all ages and backgrounds.
Since moving to Denver in 2014, Adam has served various roles at nonprofits, from volunteer to teaching artist to program director. He spent nearly a decade at Pop Culture Classroom, where he helped build and expand arts and literacy initiatives throughout Colorado, especially in historically marginalized communities. As PCC’s interim executive director for over two years, he led the organization through the pandemic and raised critical funding to stabilize operations. Most recently, he supported grassroots nonprofits nationwide through his work at the HadaNõu Collective, helping leaders build the tools, systems, and skills needed to grow their impact. He’s also served in leadership and advisory roles with the Denver Afterschool Alliance, the SCFD, and the American Library Association.
Adam is honored to join Think 360 Arts for Learning and help build on its 60-year legacy of inspiring creative expression, advancing equity in arts education, and uplifting the artists and educators who make it possible. He lives in Denver with his wife, their two cats, and a very rambunctious dog. Outside of work, you’ll likely find him playing disc golf or lacrosse, practicing yoga, camping under the stars, or soaking in one of Colorado’s many hot springs.
