Earlier this year, philanthropists Karl and Nelda Buckman founded Nelda Studios to contribute to general arts and creativity with novel media productions and giving back to the community. The power duo’s first philanthropic fund, The Buckman Fund, has allowed the couple to birth The Buckman Center to “remove limitations for creatives by providing opportunities.” The Buckman Center, a donation to The University of Texas at Austin, will be a research media center to support students in the School of Design and Creative Technologies within the Doty Fine Arts Building.
