Princeton University’s Lewis Center for the Arts has announced the selection of five Mary Mackall Gwinn Hodder Fellows for the 2024-2025 academic year. They include percussionist Britton- René Collins, visual artist Abigail DeVille, theater artist Ayesha Jordan, writer Suji Kwock Kim, and choreographer Nami Yamamoto.
Hodder Fellows may be writers, composers, choreographers, visual artists, performance artists, or other kinds of artists or humanists who demonstrate “much more than ordinary intellectual and literary gifts,” as the program outlines. Past participants have included novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, painter Mario Moore, poet Natalie Diaz, and playwrights Lauren Yee and Martyna Majok.

“We are so excited to welcome this impressive group of Hodder fellows to our LCA community where they will explore a range of profound and compelling issues in their chosen mediums: living with and through colonization; the ruptures of emigration; complex relationships between stories and places, communities, and ecosystems; and art’s capacity to catalyze social change,” said Lewis Center Chair Judith Hamera.
“We continue to be deeply grateful to Mrs. Hodder for providing the time and support essential to creating brave and rigorous artwork like those our Hodder Fellows have proposed and look forward to the ways they will expand our thinking in the year ahead.”
