Joey Hartmann-Dow is originally from Bethlehem, PA, where she was raised as a Quaker, growing up and into the radical (/logical) concepts of Peace, Integrity, Simplicity, Equality, and Community.

Her art is influenced by love, anger, breath, and planet in the context of her education in and out of academic institutions.

She spends most of her time making things or thinking about making things, or trying to manifest a version of millennial hope for our planet.

Joey lives in New Orleans, LA, and often likes to run off to Philadelphia, PA, and sometimes other places like Rochester, NY, Washington, DC, New York City, and the rest of the world.
