VIRTUAL. The Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Mary L. Nohl Fund Fellowships for Individual Artists program annually awards unrestricted funds to emerging and established local artists to support the creation of new work, or the completion of work in progress. Now in its seventeenth cycle, the program makes a significant investment in the greater Milwaukee arts community, encouraging artists to live and make work here. The Fellowships also create—through the jurying process and culminating exhibition—an opportunity to promote local artistic production to a national audience.

This year’s exhibition has moved to an online platform – The Haggerty Museum of Art’s recently launched Google Arts & Culture site. Individual galleries will feature the work of the five fellows, and will be accompanied by the interpretive materials traditionally offered at the Museum–including artist statements, biographies, and catalogue essays. Additional multi-media content–including artist interviews, studio visits and online public programs–will be added to the virtual exhibition throughout the course of the exhibition period, offering increased access to the artists themselves and providing additional insights into their working processes.

This exhibition includes new work by the 2019 Fellows, who were chosen from a field of 159 applicants by a panel of jurors.

The Nohl Fellowship program is administered in collaboration with the Bradley Family Foundation.
