Grace Hager is an interdisciplinary painter and ceramic sculptor. Her work locates the natural world as a realm of possibility: a source of transformative encounters that generate awe, revealing the magical within the observable world.

She received her Master of Fine Arts in 2023 and Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting with a Minor in Art History in 2015 both from Maine College of Art & Design. Grace has exhibited throughout the United States, including at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Portland, ME, Wassaic Project, MEPAINTSME, CT State Gateway Community College, Pamplemousse Gallery, The Parsonage, George Marshall Store Gallery, and Abigail Ogilvy Gallery, among others. 

Grace has been an artist-in-residence at Vermont Studio Center, the Wassaic Project, Directangle Press, and Running With Scissors. She is currently the 2024/2025 Ceramic Alumni Resident at Maine College of Art & Design and part of the 2025 Canopy Cohort under the mentorship of Rose Nestler. She is the recipient of a Fellowship in Painting at Vermont Studio Center, a project grant from the Puffin Foundation, and a grant from the Belvedere Fund.

She currently lives and works in Southern Maine.

Alongside her own work in the studio, Grace assists her former faculty and mentor, Gail Spaien, in her studio.
