Alexandra Broches
Memorial Scholarship Fund
Founding member, beloved artist, and a light at Hera Gallery for 50 years.
In Alexandra's memory, we have established a scholarship fund supporting local students pursuing the arts. Now in its second year, the Alexandra Broches Scholarship continues to open doors for young artists in our community — and to honor everything Alexandra gave to Hera over 50 years.
We are grateful to everyone who has contributed to this fund. Your generosity ensures that Alexandra's passion for art and community will inspire the next generation of artists right here in Rhode Island.
Support the Alexandra Broches Scholarship. Donations of any amount go directly toward awards for local students pursuing the arts.
Donate in Her HonorIt is with incredible sorrow that we share the passing of our dear friend, talented artist, and founding member Alexandra Broches. Alexandra was a light at Hera Gallery for 50 years.
In 1995, Alexandra represented Hera at the NGO Forum on Women of the Fourth United Nations World Conference in Beijing. Her moving artwork evolved over the years, culminating in her latest project "Letters and Pictures from a Box" — uncovering her family narrative. Her work is held in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Hasbro Children's Hospital (Providence, RI), Technic, Inc. (Cranston, RI), Cornish Associates (Providence, RI), as well as private collections.
It is difficult to picture Hera without Alexandra. It is because of her hard work, passion, and dedication that we have arrived at our 50th anniversary. We looked forward to celebrating this landmark with her by our side. Though she will forever be missed, Alexandra's life's work and memory will live on in the spirit of Hera.
