The Association of Independent Colleges of Art & Design (AICAD) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are pleased to announce the placement of Stephanie Fogel into the inaugural AICAD/NOAA Fisheries Art + Science Fellowship.

Stephanie Littlebird Fogel is a Kalapuyan visual artist, professional writer, and curator from Portland, Oregon.  Drawing connections between our collective past and imminent future, Fogel mixes her own tribal traditions with contemporary materials and subject matter. She is a graduate of the Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland (2015), and is a 2020 Caldera Artist in Residence, 2019 Regional Arts and Culture Council (RACC) project grant awardee, a two-time Art + Sci Initiative recipient, and has collaborated with the Oregon Bee Project, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the United States Postal Service.

The AICAD/NOAA Fisheries Art + Science Fellowship aims to provide a hands-on opportunity for a recent graduate to apply their art & design education in addressing and communicating ecological and social concerns, and bridge communities around challenging resource issues.

Stephanie will complete a 6-week residency with NOAA staff during June-July 2020 in the Pacific Northwest, followed by a six-month period from August 2020 to February 2021 to research, produce, and distribute creative work in response to the scientific and policy issues.

The selection committee was comprised of several artists and NOAA professionals, including:

Catherine Ross: Catherine is a researcher, sound artist, and choreographer hailing from Idaho. A graduate of the Pacific Northwest College of Art, she served as artist-in-residence with the NOAA in 2018/19 in their Art + Science initiative - in which Catherine choreographed and produced a multi-media performance with the pacific dance ensemble in Newport, Oregon.

Nina Elder: Nina is an artist and researcher whose work has been featured in Art in America, VICE Magazine, PBS, and her writing has been published in American Scientist and Edge Effects Journal. She has recently held positions as an Art + Environment Research Fellow at the Nevada Museum of Art, a Polar Lab Research Fellow at the Anchorage Museum, and a Researcher in Residence in the Art and Ecology Program at the University of New Mexico. Nina is based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.   

John Longchamps: John is the Founder of Longchamps & Company - an interdisciplinary firm with a strong dedication to upholding principles of sustainability and belief in the power of human potential. He earned a BFA in Industrial Design from Kendall College of Art and Design and completed a MA in Sustainable Design at Minneapolis College of Art and Design.

Alicia Keefe: Education and Outreach Coordinator for NOAA Marine Fisheries

Hannah Mellman: Public Affairs Specialist for NOAA Marine Fisheries

NOAA Fisheries is the federal agency responsible for stewardship of the nation’s ocean resources and their habitat. On the West Coast, NOAA Fisheries focuses on recovering endangered salmon and steelhead species, protecting marine mammals, and managing ocean fisheries. Through our activities in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California, we work with numerous agencies, organizations and citizens to promote science-based activities that sustain our marine resources.

The Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD) is a non-profit consortium of 40 leading art schools in the US and Canada. It was founded in 1991 by a group of 25 presidents who felt a need for the similarly structured art schools to come together so as to mutually develop their schools and programs. The mission is to help strengthen the member colleges individually and collectively, and to inform the public about these colleges and the value of studying art and design. AICAD colleges educate more than 50,000 undergraduate and graduate students each year, plus many thousands more in summer and continuing education programs.
