Laura Savage

Laura Savage has spent the majority of her career supporting artists in the Central Ohio Area. With an educational background in business and interior design she comes to the Ohio Art League as the former Director of Hammond Harkins Galleries.

“I have spent the last 28 years promoting, marketing, and exhibiting local and international artists. My passion is helping artists achieve the highest level of success. I have curated and executed exhibitions in multiple cities throughout Ohio. Many of these exhibitions were fundraisers and included special programming. That experience will aid me in building connections with the vibrant community of artists in the state of Ohio.

As the Director of the Ohio Art League, I will leverage my knowledge and skills to expand the reach of the organization outside of central Ohio, grow membership, and promote the transformative power of art.”
