Matthew Suib Awarded 2011 Pew Fellowship in the Arts

The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage Announces 2011 Pew Fellowships in the Arts Recipients
Twelve dynamic artists in the Philadelphia area receive $60,000 fellowships

Philadelphia, PA—An elegant and commanding dancer who fuses European, African, and Caribbean influences in her choreography; an architect whose designs couple concerns about environmental cost and sustainability; and a poet whose unique form of writing invites readers to participate in the deeply embodied experiences portrayed in his poems. These are three of 12 exceptional artists from the Philadelphia area who will each receive a $60,000 award this year from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through Pew Fellowships in the Arts (PFA).

The 2011 Pew Fellows, four of whom are first-time applicants to the program, were chosen in recognition of their extraordinary artistic achievements to date. Each $60,000 fellowship is granted over a 1- to 2-year period and may be awarded to artists at any stage of their careers.
