Expanding Animation’s Capabilities
A December 2023 grant from the Alden and Vada Dow Family Foundations, combined with support from an anonymous donor, enabled the creation of a new lab and classroom with spectacular new production equipment, which bolsters the capabilities of the Animation program. The grant also supports residencies of guest instructors and visiting artists. “The trustees of the Alden and Vada Dow Family Foundations are honored to assist Interlochen in the growth and expansion of the Animation program. It’s just amazing to think of all of the wonderful new forms of creative expression that have been and will be created by these talented, innovative students.” — Craig McDonald, Executive Director, The Alden and Vada Dow Family Foundations
