ARTIST TALK WITH KENDRA ROBERTS
March 17, 2026 3PM BLACKFISH GALLERY
.
Join us as we delve into the creative life of our director of public engagement, Kendra Roberts, as she shares what has inspired her throughout her artistic journey. Together we’ll roam through the countries she called home, Italy and Scotland, before returning stateside to the east coast eventually landing on the west side in Portland. Roberts is an award-winning artist, curator and arts programmer, as well as published writer. She has exhibited her work throughout the U.S. and internationally, and even made an appearance on a major American television network. Kendra received a B.A. in fine art at DePauw University in Indiana and a Master of Design from the Glasgow School of Art in Scotland.
