ENDOWED FELLOWSHIPS

Major gifts to underwrite the Fellowship residencies and associated initiatives are essential to our ability to offer this flagship Program. By design, the Fellowships generate no revenue. The purpose is to provide, without charge, time and space to emerging artists and writers so they can do new work.

To run the Program each year, it costs the Work Center nearly $45,000 per Fellow, for a total of approximately $900,000.  Support for the Funds identified below gives recognition to major donors and their families and friends whose contributions to our endowment over the years help provide support in perpetuity, based on investment income, for the cost the Fellowship Program.  We thank all donors, both past and present, for their generosity in providing this support.
