McMillan a VMFA Fellow

Associate Professor Jon McMillan unloads a kiln.

Jon McMillan, associate professor and chair of the Department of Art and Art History, has received a prestigious Virginia Museum of Fine Arts fellowship for 2019-20.

McMillan, a ceramic artist who has taught at Mary Washington since 2011, was among 12 professional artists selected. The statewide honor includes a monetary award and opportunities for fellowship recipients to exhibit their work at VMFA.

Because the fellowship coincides with McMillan’s fall 2019 sabbatical, he may use some of the award to fund an artist residency.
