Maggie Brown is an arts educator and New Jersey artist whose works are exhibited in museums, educational institutions, and art spaces statewide. New Jersey has consistently awarded her work, including honors from the 30th Annual Festival of Art, the Sixth Annual Arts Exhibition of “MASTERPIECES,” Matsushita Electric Corporation of America’s First Annual Art Exhibition Black History Month, Elizabeth Library, and Essex County’s Division of Cultural and Historic Affairs. Her sculpture assemblages and masks incorporate cardboard, wood, fiber, Styrofoam, recycled/discarded goods, and other materials. As a photographer, she has traveled extensively throughout Africa, Europe, and South America. “Ultimately, my goal in the community is to change the environment by helping to develop and create intellectual and environmental citizenship of our children. The recycled materials that I use literally change the environment and hopefully my art changes people’s perception of what constitutes art.”
