Libby Bland and Sarah Rafael García are the 2019 Kathrine G. McGovern College of the Arts – Project Row Houses (KGMCA-PRH) Fellows. The KGMCA-PRH Fellowship invites artists and cultural practitioners to the Third Ward to work alongside urban planners, educators and policy makers to engage in creative collaborations that involve the Third Ward community. The Fellowship is a research-based program that allows people to spend time addressing complex challenges that impact communities of color.

Our new feature on the blog, titled Fellows Update, is an opportunity to share the research reflections from the Fellows’ point of view. Before our first Fellows Update, please watch Libby and Sarah’s introductory lectures to understand what inspires them to create their art.
