Residencies and Workshops
For Teaching Artists

Artists who work in school classrooms need to adapt to the current standards-based, testing-intense culture. Teachers don't have time to deviate from their curriculum. In this workshop, teaching artists find natural connections that match what they do in their art workshops to goals and objectives teachers must teach in the core curriculum. They become aware of how they already teach to multiple intelligences. They create a residency plan that speaks to teachers in the language they understand. They experience a fully-integrated, arts-based activity, and construct assessment tools so students and teachers know and can demonstrate what they have learned from the residency.
