Nevada Arts Council Announces 2023 Visual Arts Fellows 

[Carson City, Nevada] — The Nevada Arts Council announces the six 2023 Visual Arts Fellows. Since 1989, the Nevada Arts Council has recognized 210 fellows in Visual, Performing, and Literary Arts who demonstrate excellence in their field. The Fellowship Program was designed to encourage the pursuit of artistic excellence by providing financial support to outstanding artists. Nevada Arts Council Fellowship grants can be awarded at any stage of the artists’ career development. By recognizing and rewarding artistic accomplishments instead of educational experience, these fellows promote public awareness and appreciation of how Nevada artists contribute to the economic, civic, cultural, educational and health benefits in Nevada and its communities.  

The Nevada Arts Council is proud to announce six 2023 Visual Arts Fellows, four in 2-dimensional works and two in 3-dimensional and new media. The 2-dimensional artists are:

The 3-dimensional and new media artists are:
