Hi, I’m Jenna…

 

…a Philadelphia-based artist with a day job in instructional design that has exhibited throughout Pennsylvania and nationally. My work has been purchased for many private collections and has been included in numerous exhibitions, including exhibitions at the State Museum of Pennsylvania, the Woodmere Art Museum, and galleries throughout the United States. In 2011, I was the recipient of the NewCourtland Fellowship, a community-based fellowship that brings together care home residents and school-aged children through the Center for Emerging Visual Artists. I completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania, with a concentration in drawing (and a Master of Science in Instructional Design, for the day job!).
