Two Bard College alumnae, MAT Alva Rogers ’12 and Sadie Wechsler ’07, have been awarded 2026 Guggenheim Fellowships by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. Rogers was awarded as a fellow in Drama and Performance Art, and Wechsler was awarded as a fellow in the field of Photography. Chosen through a rigorous application and peer review process from a pool of nearly 5,000 applicants, 2026 Guggenheim fellows were tapped based on both prior career achievement and exceptional promise, and each receives a monetary stipend to pursue independent work at the highest level under the freest possible conditions. Congratulations!

Congratulations to Bard MAT alum Alva Rogers ('12) on her selection as one of the 2026 Guggenheim Fellows!

Alva Rogers, a dramatist, vocalist, puppeteer, and founder of Alva Puppet Theater, creates theatrical work that fearlessly addresses the often hidden, unacknowledged emotional and physical labor of people of color, particularly women.

Her dramas transcend the mimetic recognizable stage by employing elements of magic realism and surrealism to shroud those invisible threads while obscuring the emotional labor involved in mining and distilling African American and American history. Rogers' imagination continues to explore the intersection of actor, object, and material performance, providing a perspective on both the world we inhabit and the one we aspire to create.
