Clare Kemmerer has been named the Carlson-Cowart Fellow at the Prints and Drawings Department of the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA). At the BMA, she will contribute to collection research, exhibition development, and public programming.

Ariela Algaze has been selected as the 2025–2026 recipient of the Robert and Nancy Hall Graduate Curatorial Fellowship at the Walters Museum of Art.
