The Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Mary L. Nohl Fund Fellowships for Individual Artists program annually awards unrestricted funds to emerging and established local artists for the creation of new work or the completion of work in progress. Now in its 16th cycle, the program significantly invests in the Greater Milwaukee Area arts community—encouraging artists to live and make work here. Through the jurying process and culminating exhibition, the fellowships also create an opportunity to promote local artistic production to a national audience.

This exhibition includes new work by the 2018 fellows, who were chosen from a group of 177 applicants by a panel of three jurors: Lucy Mensah, an independent curator and visiting assistant professor of museum and exhibition studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Art and Art History; Risa Puleo, an independent curator; and Ashley Stull Meyers, co-curator of the Portland2019 Biennial.


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