Jane Crater Hiatt Fellowship

Jerrod has been named the winner of the 2025 Jane Crater Hiatt Fellowship, a $25,000 award given to one artist from the Mississippi Invitational Exhibition at the Mississippi Museum of Art. He will use the award money to develop a series of paintings about communities within the coastal seafood industry. In 2027, the finished body of work will be exhibited at the Walter Anderson Museum of Art in Ocean Springs as well as the Maritime & Seafood Industry Museum in Biloxi.  One piece from the new series will go into the permanent collection of the Mississippi Museum of Art.
