The John Michael Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan has received a $1 million grant from the Lenore G. Tawney Foundation.
This money will go toward the establishment of an endowment that will support the new Lenore G. Tawney Fellowship, to be awarded annually to a scholar, writer, curator, or artist to pursue projects using the Arts Center’s Tawney collection as a basis or inspiration for their work.
Fellowships will be open to individuals of all nationalities, at all educational levels, and from all disciplines.
In addition to the endowment grant, the Foundation is providing the Arts Center with an operating grant of $50,000 to operate the Fellowship in its first year.
The first fellow will be announced in early 2023, with the fellowship beginning in the summer of 2023.
