About
My name is Gage Holcomb and I am a graduate of UNC Wilmington. At UNCW I double majored in Theatre Technology and Design with an emphasis in Costume Design and Film Studies. More recently, I have been working as a freelance crafter at Randy Carfagno Productions and as a design assistant for Julie Saltman.
I am interested in designing and building costumes and other crafts for the stage. I have a passion for period pieces and puppets.
In addition to costume design, I am also interested in curating and installing art exhibits. I worked at the Ann Flack Boseman Gallery at UNC Wilmington. For this position, I was in charge of meeting with artists and developing a gallery layout that displayed their designs in a manner that maintained the artist's integrity. -
