Announcing our 2022 Travel Grant awardees

At our conference in Kent State this October, we were thrilled to award three Student & Emerging Artist Research Travel Grants. Presented every two years, these grants support creative opportunities that require travel, based on proposals submitted by MAPC members. $500 was awarded for each of the following categories:

  • Undergraduate Winner: Emma DeValk
  • Graduate Winner: Katheryn Horne
  • Emerging Artist Winner: Susanna Harris

Along with Alanna Austin, Chair of the Artist Research Travel Grants Committee, and everyone on the 2020-’22 MAPC board, we offer a sincere thank you to our panel of jurors:

Ani Volkan
Barbara Westman
Colin Lyons
Jennifer Scheuer

We have enjoyed seeing the work that has come from the experiences these artists were able to pursue, and look forward to continuing our support for this committee as the 2024 conference approaches.
