Good Company

IN JULY, KIRKPATRICK Foundation traveled west to Santa Fe, New Mexico, with the Kirkpatrick Fellows, a group of emerging artists from Oklahoma City. The inaugural class included jewelry designer Fernando Calvillo; Jared Kinley, photographer; Alexandra Schooling, ballerina; and Patrick Womack, percussionist. They visited with Arlo Namingha at Niman Gallery, enjoyed private tours of New Mexico Museum of Art’s Vladem Contemporary and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, and attended two nights of performances at the Santa Fe Opera.
