 News & Views

Dear Friends –

We are pleased to present the latest News & Views report of shows, exhibitions and other news from our artist grantees: new work from them, workshops they’ll be teaching, residency awards across the U.S. and Europe … and, of course, many shows and exhibitions.

Many of our grantees are represented here; many more have shows scheduled for later in 2023 and into 2024. 

On behalf of the Board of Directors of the RHCF, I want to thank all of our wonderful donors, who throughout four decades have continued to give generously in support of our mission.

Enjoy the work!

Peter Bunten
President
