The Art Pusher

Originally from Venezuela with a background in International Human Rights Law and Gender Rights, she set headquarters in Washington DC, where she turned her career and now strives for justice through art and cultural experiences. Recognizing storytelling as the essence of her practice, Fabiola works on thought-provoking projects that recenter perspectives and encourage intergenerational creative learning.

She has worked with institutions such as the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the National Museum of American History, the National Museum of Asian Art, Anacostia Community Museum, Times Square Arts, the Embassy of Spain’s Cultural Office, Washington Project for the Arts, the Museum of Food and Drink, No Kings Collective, the National Cherry Blossom Festival, The Fundred Project with MacArthur Fellow Mel Chin, The Obama White House, and more.Among other distinctions, she is a first cohort Fellow of the National Leaders of Color Fellowship—a collaborative program from the six U.S. Regional Arts Organizations. She serves on the Curatorial Selection Committee for the GLB Memorial Fund for the Arts––an annual award supporting women artists and curators in Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Additionally, she is a Communications and Engagement Advisor for S.O.U.R.C.E Studio,––an artist-centered studio that uses bold and poetic approaches to connect people and address human challenges. She is also a co-founder of KAMA-DC––a community building platform for immigrant-led cultural experiences.Fabiola lends her expertise as juror, nominator, lecturer, and panelist for various institutions, including the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, VisArts, Interledger Foundation, Hola Cultura, Wherewithal Grants, the James Beard Foundation, The Heinz Awards, and more.
