Haley Fonfa, a 27-year-old artist and curator originally from Las Vegas, NV, now resides in Los Angeles, CA, USA. She currently serves as the Resident Curator at the Rhimes Performing Arts Center, home of the Debbie Allen Dance Academy. Additionally, she organizes self-curated art exhibitions that double as fundraisers for the 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization she founded last year, the Brett Fonfa Foundation (BFF). Before her tenure at Rhimes, Fonfa worked as a specialty mural painter and decorator at Insomniac Events, and she also lent her talents to the Grey's Anatomy Art Department.

As an artist, Fonfa has discovered a profound sense of freedom and voice. Embracing art as her life's calling since adolescence, it has evolved into her predominant passion since 2015, shaping her identity. Fonfa's art reflects the perpetual evolution of the world and humanity, intertwining vibrant animated colors, unique brush strokes, and various paint mediums to express eternal themes such as hope, freedom, love, and fear. The loss of her older brother Brett and father in recent years, both pivotal supporters and inspirations, has profoundly influenced Fonfa's artistic journey. Their memory continues to inspire her, guiding her through transformative experiences that have reshaped her approach to art and life.

Beyond her personal artistic endeavors, Fonfa has been dedicated to providing a platform for marginalized artists since 2018, fostering community and giving back. On July 21, 2022, she officially established the Brett Fonfa Foundation (BFF) as a 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization in honor of her late brother. The foundation's mission is to promote arts education and accessibility by offering resources, art therapy, and opportunities to artists of all ages, thereby enriching communities worldwide.
