She has been a resident artist at The Museum of Glass and Pilchuck Glass School and is a recipient of the John and Mary Shirley Award from the Pratt Fine Arts Center. Her work has been exhibited internationally. As Program Director at Artist Trust, Lydia oversees annual planning, implementation, and evaluation of all Artist Trust grant-making, resources and professional development programs. Centering creative strategies, she prioritizes identifying and addressing potential barriers for participation in Artist Trust funding and programs.
