Tamarack Foundation for the Arts proudly announces six awards in its Emerging Artist Fellowship program for 2021. New fellows include Emily Prentice of Randolph County, Suzan Ann Morgan of Upshur County, Brandy Jefferys of Cabell County, Kelsie Tyson of Greenbrier County, Nichole Westfall and Blake Wheeler, both of Kanawha.
Emerging Artist Fellows are thriving early-career artists who demonstrate a superior level of mastery and an aptitude to become successful creative professionals. Chosen by an independent committee of master artists and arts leaders, they contribute to the foundation’s mission of growing West Virginia’s economy by empowering promising creatives.
Each fellowship includes a stipend and continuing access to professional skill-building in the areas of branding, marketing, and technology as well as valuable connections with a community of successful creatives in West Virginia.
