The Omaha Steaks Visiting Artist Endowment helps Interlochen bring United States Artist Fellows or artists from organizations with similar missions to Interlochen’s campus as visiting teachers and artists-in-residence. This endowment enables visiting artist master classes, residencies, and other special projects for students of all disciplines at Interlochen Arts Academy and Camp. This incredible opportunity for Interlochen students was made possible by Todd and Betiana Simon. The Nancy and Phillip Meek WYSO Conductor Endowment ensures that Interlochen Arts Camp’s World Youth Symphony Orchestra will always have funding for musical leadership of the highest caliber. Established through gifts from longtime Interlochen and IPR supporters Trustee Emerita Nancy and Phillip Meek, at least one WYSO conductor each summer will be supported by this endowment beginning in the summer of 2026. The Morris Family Visiting Artist Endowment , established in 2022, supports artist residencies and visiting teachers and presenters, both for Interlochen Arts Academy and Camp. The fund, which puts a special (but not exclusive) focus on musical guest artists, is the gift of Thomas W. Morris (IAC/NMC 59), his wife Jane, and their children Elisa, William, and Charles. Tom currently serves on Interlochen’s Board of Trustees.
