Congratulations to Matt Gilbert and Matt Debbaudt for receiving the 2014 Margrit Mondavi Summer Fellowship. Excellent work!

Through the generous support of philanthropist Margrit Mondavi, the Humanities Institute awards 10 grants to graduate students in Ph.D. and M.F.A. programs in the division of Humanities, Arts, and Cultural Studies to support travel, research, workshops and other project-related work in the summer of 2012. 

Ms. Mondavi and the UC Davis community look forward to all the great work that this funding will seed in the arts and humanities. The awards will support a wide and exciting array of projects, both creative and scholarly, including musical compositions, an oral history project documenting the revival of a Native American flower dance, and the design and creation of two large-scale, kinetic sculptures that explore ideas concerning the production of images of thought.
