Pat Alto

Co-President

Pat is a creative professional with a background in marketing, writing and design. She is passionate about giving back to the community through volunteering and is currently on the boards of Rocky Neck Art Colony and the Greater Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce as well as a volunteer at Pathways for Children and 100 Women Who Care Cape Ann.

On the Cape Ann Plein Air board, Pat enjoys the collaborative energy of this great team. She believes organizations like CAPA are essential in engaging the community in the creative process through such events as the monthly art demonstrations in local restaurants for CAPA’s Palate to Palette series and at the annual QuickDraw in that engages over 100 profession and amateur painters during CAPA week in October.

A lifelong Cape Ann resident, Pat currently lives in Rockport with her husband, Glenn. They have two adult children.
