About
Hi, I’m Maddie!
Artist | Educator | Arts Administrator
I am an artist from Louisville, KY, and am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky (UK) with a Bachelor of Arts in Art Studio. I am currently in the process of applying for a graduate program in Arts Administration with the hopes of working for an organization that advances the arts in Kentucky. During my time at UK, I worked as an assistant for the UK Art Museum and as a research assistant for the Oral Histories of Art Education in Kentucky project, where I helped collect interviews of art educators in the Commonwealth. During the summer, I work for the Kentucky Governor’s School for the Arts, where I have the privilege of mentoring some of Kentucky’s best young artists in the school’s Visual Art program. Outside of my work and education, I continue to cultivate my own artistic practice, especially in drawing, painting, and fiber arts. As an artist, educator, and arts administrator, I am passionate about the development of diverse and inclusive arts programming and making the arts accessible to everyone.
My affinity for visual art started at a very young age and was fostered by a number of caring family members, educators, and friends who I could not have made it this far without. If you’re reading this, you’re one of those supporters! Thanks for checking out my art, and be sure to follow me on social media if you’d like to stay updated on my work!
