Welcome! I’m Cory Munro Shea — a working visual artist and arts administrator. I’ve spent the last 15+ years building a dual career rooted in both personal creative practice and public-facing arts leadership.
As an exhibiting artist, my work explores themes of inheritance, matrilineal storytelling, and memory, often blending collage, textile, and ceramic processes. My pieces have been featured in galleries, pop-up shows, and public art spaces throughout New England.
Alongside my studio practice, I’ve developed a career in arts administration, creating opportunities for artists, managing cultural programs, and advocating for inclusive access to the arts. Since 2024, I’ve served as the Director of Arts, Culture, and the Creative Economy for the Town of Franklin, Massachusetts, where I support creative entrepreneurs, coordinate public art initiatives, and help shape the cultural identity of the region.
Thank you for visiting.
