Artist Testimonials

Ashley Rollend

Harvard Business School

"The art show reconnected me with the artist I used to be…You may discover that your boss is a magnificent quilter, that your quiet colleague writes poems that bring you to tears, and that the artist you thought you left behind is still inside you, waiting to be reignited by creativity, community, and connection."

"The level of creativity and skill displayed at the show is so impressive and having my work included in the exhibition fills me with pride. I really appreciate that Harvard takes the opportunity to recognize and encourage staff talent in this way."

"…what stands out the most is its rich opportunity to experience my colleagues more fully. We do Harvard’s work every day, but only through the art show, have I seen remarkable gifts that my colleagues carry that provide deep insight into who they are as humans, far more than preparing a course packet or navigating scheduling software ever could."
