In 2017, Stephanie was included in Fictions, part of the Studio Museum of Harlem’s F-show exhibitions. Additional exhibition venues include |’sindikit |, Washington Project for the Arts, The Delaware Contemporary, Grizzly Grizzly, the Everhart Museum, and Laurence University’s Wriston Art Center with reviews in The New York Times, Village Voice, Huffington Post, and The Washington Post. Williams received a fellowship from the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities (2019), was a Sondheim Finalist (2019),  and a Toby Devan Lewis Fellow (2007).
