View source for Rae Occhipinti

Greetings A2 Members,

For those who do not know me, my name is Rae Lee Occhipinti. I am currently the Fiber Arts Shop Lead and I have also had the pleasure of serving as an A2 founding Gallery Panel Member over the last two years. After we defined our roles within the Panel, I was selected to serve as Bookkeeper. This is my bid to be re-elected for that role. 

Apart from being on the Gallery Panel as Bookkeeper, my other responsibilities include (but are not limited to) sourcing materials for installations, facilitating sales of assets, and assisting the Gallery Lead and Creative Director in accomplishing anything that needs extra hands or creative input. 

Outside of my roles at A2, I run my small business from my studio space in Holton, mending and repairing clothing/jewelry—you have probably seen me around, though I am usually locked in on my repair work. I also work in event drape and production all around the country, but mostly in New England. I am fully obsessed by all things textile and sustainable fashion related. 

Thank you for taking the time to consider me for the Gallery Panel. It would be an honor to serve an additional term. If you have any questions for me please send an email to rae@houseofpaintedeyes.com.
