The Artful Travels story

A life shaped by art & travel

Jeanne Fontaine, founder of Artful Travels

Jeanne Fontaine · Founder & Travel Director

Artful Travels began with Jeanne Fontaine’s lifelong love of travel, the arts, and the artists who help us see the world differently.

Since 2003, Jeanne has led small-group cultural journeys in the United States and abroad. Each itinerary brings together inspiring destinations, experienced artists and guides, and opportunities for genuine connection.

Meet Jeanne Fontaine

For nearly thirty years, Jeanne served as Courses Curator for the Museum School at the Springfield Museums, developing studio art, art history, and science programs. She began coordinating the museum’s travel program in 2003, planning and escorting journeys alongside her work with exceptional educators.

That experience continues to shape Artful Travels: personal attention, carefully chosen places to stay, and a balance of creativity, culture, and shared discovery.
