Spudnik Press Cooperative is thrilled to announce yet one more opportunity for emerging artists to gain access to Spudnik while building their professional portfolio! Over the winter, we welcomed our first batch of studio fellows, Nate Cubeta, Elise Forer, and Tara Zanzig. They did an astounding job monitoring our open studio sessions, making beautiful prints, and curating some pretty great exhibitions (including Good Vibrations, Tenebris, with a reception on Friday April 18, and two more forthcoming).

What is a Studio Fellow? Fellows act as Studio Monitor for one Open Studio session per week, as well as curate one exhibition in The Printshop during their fellowship period. Fellows will also take on leadership roles at special events, member meetings, and outreach efforts. Fellows will meet regularly to share artwork and support each others projects. The program creates accountability for each fellow as they set personal goals, create healthy studio habits, and develop their portfolio, and culminates in an exhibition in the Printshop, featuring new work by each fellow.
