Our signature program, the Emerging Lens Fellowship saw significant growth in 2023 with the receipt of a National Endowment of the Arts grant allowing AWP to professionalize the experience for our grantees. For the first year, we were able to offer up to three fellows annually, depending on funding, $5,000 unrestricted fellowship awards along with formalizing our mentorship process by paying experienced international photographers honorariums for their time and commitment to building relationships and career pipelines for our fellows, while also raising the profile of the program based on the reputation of the mentors involved. Two fellows were funded during 2023 for $5,000 each. 10000 37524 We saw success with our ongoing research-based exhibition "Borders Cruzadas" which we were able to exhibit and program across a number of high-profile arts and cultural events across Chicago including a sponsored pop-up exhibition and artists' talk at EXPO Chicago, a pop-up and presentation at the annual Night of Ideas festival hosted by the French Consulate's Arts and Culture Unit, and also secured fellowship funding for our collaborating photographers to kick start a one-year residency in Chicago to continue their fieldwork while also engaging with students from Chicago communities for arts education programs and workshops. 105115 Thanks to funding from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, we were able to launch a Curatorial Fellowship program with our inaugural fellow, a recent graduate from the School of the Art Institute, whose focused curatorial research and writing helped AWP to secure a number of exhibition opportunities for upcoming fairs. This program has allowed us to deepen our connection with college and graduate level art schools to start to develop more engagement and resource sharing opportunities across our institutions. 33285 175924 X Leslie Thomas Emeritus 1.00 0 Alex Von Hoffman Director 1.00 0 Shannon P Bartlett Director 1.00 0 Bekah Dickstein Director 1.00 0 Howard Conant Director 1.00 0 Martine Grandby Director 1.00 0 Chad Sawyer Emeritus 1.00 0 Sherwin Bryant Director 1.00 0 Meggie Cramer Director 1.00 0 Franco Turrinelli Treasurer 1.00 0 Ivan Arenas Chairman 1.00 0 Bora Un Managing Dir. 32.00 68000 Muna Idow Director 1.00 0 Fergal McCarthy Director 1.00 0 Samia A Wahab PhD Director 1.00 0 Wendy Wei Director 1.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false IL Bora Un 625 N Kingsbury Street Chicago IL 606546997 3126490025 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 273034 135008 383640 24493 101480 917655 0 0 273034 135008 383640 24493 101480 917655 276156 641499 0 0 0 917655 24786 0.69910 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Other Expenses.1001 Advertising and Promotion $4519 Other Expenses.1002 Office Expenses $32 Other Expenses.1005 Travel $12705 Other Expenses.1012 Insurance $3270 Other Expenses.1 Contract Services $35387 Other Expenses.2 Artist & Speaker fees $35123 Other Expenses.3 Events $11119 Other Expenses.4 Production Costs $9139 Other Expenses.5 Other program costs $3047 Other Expenses.6 Subscriptions $2079 Other Expenses.7 Membership fees $1641 Other Expenses.8 Meetings $1111 Other Expenses.9 Development expense $542 Other Expenses.10 Bank fees $406 Other Expenses.11 Board related expenses $296 Other Expenses.12 Miscellaneous $100 Other Expenses.13 Payroll service fee $63 Other Assets.1005 Accounts Receivable - Beginning $0 Accounts Receivable - Ending $900 Other Assets.1006 Pledges and Grants Receivable - Beginning $103134 Pledges and Grants Receivable - Ending $172634 Total Liabilities.1001 Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses - Beginning $19387 Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses - Ending $13919
