KAC: Kansas Mid-Career Artist Fellowship Award Winner

gse_multipart57483.jpg

I learned yesterday that I am a recipient of the Kansas Mid-Career Artist Fellowship Award granted by the Kansas Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts. Winning an award always makes me feel a little uneasy. I am proud and humbled, because I know there were many talented people that applied for the grant.

As many as 8 Kansas artists will recieve the grant in 2008. The Kansas Mid-Career Artist Fellowship is for creative artists practicing in all artistic media. Mid-Career Fellowship applicants are evaluated across disciplines as a group.

Each year, the Kansas Arts Commission honors Kansas artists with fellowship awards in recognition of excellence in career achievement and potential. Since 1989, 75 Artist Fellowships and 147 Artist Mini-Fellowships have been awarded. Expert panels, consisting of members of the Kansas Arts Commission and arts professionals, select the winners.
