Related Tactics (Michele Carlson, Weston Teruya, and Nate Watson) is honored to be the 2023 Rainin Fellow in Public Space. It’s humbling and affirming to have our work supported as part of the long history of community building, collective practice, and socially engaged art in the Bay Area. Our deepest thanks to the Kenneth Rainin Foundation for this investment in our continuing work, United States Artists for administering this award and providing professional resources, and the many artists and supporters who have joined us in creating projects over the last eight years.

From the Rainin Foundation:
We are thrilled to introduce the 2023 recipients of The Rainin Fellowship, an annual award celebrating visionary Bay Area artists working in dance, film, public space, and theater. “Their boundary-pushing creative practices, performances, plays, films, and writings illuminate and further enrich the longstanding history of cultural experimentation and innovation in the Bay Area,” says Ted Russell, Director, Arts Strategy & Ventures at the Kenneth Rainin Foundation.
