KINGSTON — Annette Spaulding-Convy of Kingston was awarded a literary fellowship by Artist Trust.

Spaulding-Convy was one of 15 artists selected for her artistic achievement, dedication to an artistic discipline, and potential for further professional development.

She will receive $7,500 of unrestricted funds. In addition, she will receive a $1,000 stipend and serve a one-month residency at The Millay Colony for the Arts,  in upstate New York.

She will participate in a Meet the Artist event held outside her place of residency within Washington state. The purpose is to outreach to underserved populations that are not aware of the artist and/or have little access to art.
