Ilene Gruber Adams

Bio/Artist Statement
After a successful tenure as the owner of a nationally acclaimed multimillion-dollar broadcast marketing company in the Northeast for over 20 years, Ilene Adams made a bold shift. She relocated to Florida, redirecting her passion towards small businesses and the arts. Her company was a trailblazer, being the first all-female radio-marketing company in the country. Ilene's journey also led her to the non-profit art world, where she brought her marketing talents and creativity to an art center in West Palm Beach, several art organizations, and the community at large. She generously shares her expertise through seminars on marketing your art.
Ilene's artistic journey is a testament to her versatility and creativity. She studied printmaking and painting in Rome and earned a BFA from Tyler School of Art, Temple University. Her thirst for knowledge led her to study with the renowned Milton Glaser at the School of Visual Arts in New York and marketing at Harvard University. Her artistic endeavors have been diverse, ranging from designing textiles to creating murals, graphic design, and web design. All these influences are beautifully woven into her fine art.
Ilene had curated numerous shows, including exhibits for Art...
