About
Me
Curator. Administrator. Connector. I am interested in how art can extend beyond the canvas into our lives-- everyone's lives. In particular, my work draws inspiration from craft, gender theory, and fashion history. I am constantly curious about presentation, as it says much about one's culture, affluence, and person. I also have a deep passion for celebrating local artists and history.
Jenna has developed 19 exhibitions and supervised curatorial content for over 45 shows ranging from 19th century landscape paintings to contemporary glass. She was awarded the Karen Murdoch Scholarship at Drexel University; Phi Beta Kappa status and Rhodes College accolades (Apollonian Award and 2020 William Bruce '11 Award for Outstanding Paper in Art History); and has been featured in the Journal Gazette (Fort Wayne, IN) and PBS Fort Wayne.
Jenna is currently pursuing a MS in Art Administration with a Museum Leadership concentration at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA. She is a proud native Hoosier.
