This year's RAICs have been awarded the Certificate of Plenipotentiary for their outstanding contributions to the most challenging season here at Mildred's Lane. Each year, we invite a handful of fellows to staff our efforts throughout the year. During a very shut down season, our sending institutions and colleagues selected the 2020 spring/summer team to learn the fine art and system aesthetics of Workstyles of Mildred's Lane. Their RAIC experience includes aiding the Ambassadors and assisting artists from around the world on projects and sessions swarming around social topics.
These fellows are most recognized for their patience during this season of COVID-19, working collectively, laboriously, creatively domesticating, detailing our relations to the environment and each other, but importantly, taking constant care and maintenance of the artist projects in these deep woods. Thank you.
Thank you to colleagues and institutions supporting these Mildred's Lane RAIC Fellows*:
The Mildred Complex(ity), J. Morgan Puett, Mark Dion, The Cooper Union Center for Career Development Professional Internship Program, The Luminarts Cultural Foundation, and anonymous others.
Thank you to Friends of Mildred's Lane making our one and only session a smooth and successful one: Carla Duarte, Abby Lutz, Leila Gordon, and Barry Puett.
Thank you to Marx for Cats Applied: Caroline Woolard and Leigh Claire La Berge, with contributing artists, Daniel Tucker and Emily Bunker, Marisa Williamson; and with Fellows Brett Wallace, Lee Noble, Hannah Hirsekorn, Barry Puett, and Isabel Jerome.
