I’m writing to let you know that QC’s own Uche Nduka has been named a 2017 NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellow in Poetry.

New York Foundation for the Arts has administered the NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowship Program for the past 31 years with leadership support from New York State Council on the Arts. The organization has awarded a total of $644,000 to 95 artists (including three collaborations) whose ages range from 25-84 years from across New York State. See the full release with complete list of fellows and finalists below and online, and click here for images.
