Hubbard, Feeney Win Grants To Fund New Works

Two Spokane artists Kathy Hubbard and Kendall Feeney recently received 1995 Grants for Artists Projects awards from Artist Trust.

Hubbard and Feeney will use their grants to help finance their work. A total of 43 Washington artists received $35,000 in grants from Artist Trust.

Hubbard, who has shown her work in numerous exhibits across the country, will create figurative sculptures, inspired by Ghanian women artists.

Feeney, artistic director of Zephyr: Chamber Music with an Attitude, will use her award for the commission and performance of “Yes, the Fish Music” by Northwest composer David Jones based on a poem by Richard Brautigan.
