In 2012, we celebrated 10 years of connecting arts education, exhibitions, and studios by hosting an alumni exhibition and producing an anniversary publication. In a survey of Studios Program alums, we learned that over 85% were working in an arts-related job and over 93% were still making art –a remarkable acknowledgement of our incubator program’s success. While making an impact locally, the recognition was national as we were awarded our first grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
