The crucial work of advancing the careers of artists, entrepreneurs and administrators is possible at Ohio State because of the Barnett Family. Established in 1992, the Lawrence R. Barnett and Isabel Bigley Barnett Fellowship fund provides tuition, fees, and an annual stipend for promising students in the Arts Administration, Education and Policy graduate program. Barnett Fellows work with faculty members as research associates, participate in the Barnett Field School, intern at the Ohio State Urban Arts Space and assist with the biennial Barnett Arts and Public Policy Symposium.
