This summer we have two brand new faces in the ECCOTA Gallery. Hired through the PHEAA Summer Work Study Program and supported by the Stackpole-Hall Foundation, interns Alicia Fritz and Caroline Fitch will be planning and directing all youth summer programming.
Alicia Fritz, digital self portrait
Alicia is a graduate of Elk County Catholic High School. She is currently working toward her BFA at Edinboro University, with a concentration in Graphic & Interactive Design. She enjoys spending time outside and participating in Track & Field. Some of her hobbies include painting, writing, and reading. Much of her work is inspired by nature, sporting events, traditional painting techniques, and minimalism. Her hope is that she can benefit the community through the use of her design knowledge and traditional art background.
Caroline Fitch
Caroline Fitch is 19 years old and currently a sophomore at Edinboro University majoring in Art Education. She has always had a passion for everything art and has been drawing since she could pick up a pencil. Her favorite media at the moment is charcoal and she plans to do lots of figure and still life drawing this summer. Caroline’s other passion is music, and you may have seen her playing either guitar or ukulele in local coffee shops, wineries, or restaurants. She is looking forward to meeting many more local artists and having a great summer!
