Anna RochesterAnna Rochester (she,her) received her B.A. in Art Education from the University of Oregon and her M.A. from the Art Institute of Chicago. From 1996 to 2010 she worked in Museum Education departments at world class institutes from the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures at the University of Chicago to the Shedd Aquarium and, then at the Exploratorium in San Francisco. Her work focused on leveraging museum collections and hands-on practices to enrich K-12 curricula, exploring the interface between artistic and scientific ways of inquiry. Since 2014, She has lived in Kentfield with her son, husband and dog. For Anna, art making remains both a way to represent the world and its abstractions, and a vehicle with which to engage with artists and students motivated by similar aspirations. Her latest project with the California Society of Printmakers involved working on an artist book called “Confluence”, in conjunction with Print Houston. Anna is thrilled to be the co-curator of the Marelli Window Gallery in San Rafael, which has been a shoe repair business for over 100 years!
