Congratulations to Jeremy Lundquist, Visual Arts Instructor, for being awarded an Artist Initiative Grant by the Minnesota State Arts Board. Lundquist will create and exhibit a new series of large-scale etchings based on the minimal media coverage of the end and subsequent continuation of combat operations in Afghanistan. Grants are given to artists at all stages of their careers, to support artistic development, nurture artistic creativity, and recognize the contributions that individual artists make to the creative environment of the state of Minnesota. Lundquist’s Artist Initiative Grant is worth $10,000.
