THANK YOU

EVERYONE!

The students and faculty members of The Role of the Artist as Producer 2024 class are so thankful for the opportunity to be working with Progressive Insurance and the artists of the Progressive Art Collection. Between sharing amazing student works, having insightful conversations, and lots of collaborative work, we are so pleased to share this unique opportunity with you all and want to note that we could not have done this without the overwhelming help and support we’ve gotten throughout the semester.

We’d like to extend our gratitude to our faculty members Amber Kempthorn and Sarah Kabot, the Progressive Insurance faculty Morgan Hughes, Julia Milbrandt, and H. Scott Westover, and the Cleveland Institute of Art’s marketing team Mike Butz and Richard Sarian.

We’d also like to highlight and contribute a special thank-you to the Progressive Art Collection artists:

Larry Bell and his studio manager Desiree Manville, Kara Walker, Petah Coyne and their studio assistant Miku Sekimoto, Andy Yoder, Jon Kessler, Beverly Semmes, James Hyde, Vik Muniz, Felice Varini, Joseph Kosuth, Jennifer Steinkamp, Doris Salcedo, Kerry James Marshall and his team, Todd Pavlisko, Valerie Hegarty, and Bradley McCallum and Jaqueline Tarry.

Thank you all again for this amazing, memorable opportunity and we hope to continue these collaborative, artful endeavors as time goes on!
