Daphne Taranto has been awarded a Fulbright Open Study/Research Award to India in the Design category for 9 months, starting August 2019. She will be focusing on research related to art books (which includes design books, photo books, zines, etcetera). The official independent project title is "Creative Publishing as Cultural Outlet and Site of Exchange and Dialogue between US–India." She will be mostly based in Ahmedabad at the National Institute of Design (NID), with additional research partner-affiliations in Mumbai & New Delhi. The Fulbright U.S. Student Program is the largest U.S. exchange program, primarily funded by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
Advice I would give to future students is to just do it and come to Oxbow and not overthink it because it will most likely (99.9%) be the best decision you have made in your life.

I want to thank you all for being so supportive and wonderful, thank you for running this incredible program. And half of my acceptance to RISD is because of Oxbow. (Especially thanks to Chris who wrote my letter of rec, to Jennifer who revised my essays, to the admissions team who helped me with my portfolio.

Hey guys! OS33 alumni here! I received a full ride to California College of the Arts and just wanted to tell you guys that if it wasn't for the Oxbow experience and the great faculty who saw the potential in me I wouldn't have gotten as far as I did. I am still waiting for other colleges at the moment but I think this might be the school I will attend this fall!
