Coming from a family full of artists and artisans, she learned to appreciate the arts through literature, theater, music, painting, woodcraft, and illustration. She went on to study Visual Arts, earning a BFA for Glass and Ceramics from Keystone College. During her time there, she discovered a passion for sculpting and 3-dimensional media. Abigail has worked as a glassblower for the Corning Museum of Glass and Hot Sand of Asbury Park, NJ and currently dedicates her time to the Corning arts community through The Rockwell Museum and 171 Cedar Arts Center. She loves to hike, has recently learned to knit, and can’t resist a hot bowl of soup.
