Joanne Fabian

Photographer, Illustrator, & Gallery Owner

Joanne is a graduate of Pennridge. She started working at age 12 and put herself through college in Boston in the 1970's. She went to junior college to establish residency and then went to the Massachusetts College of Art and Design where she majored in illustration with a minor in photography. After graduation, she returned to PA where she built a business with illustration commissions and sports and portrait photography. She has sold her award-winning nature work at art festivals and stores. In 2017, she opened Art on the Hill in Souderton, a thriving, award-winning art gallery hosting and selling art for 30+ artists within a 30-mile radius.
