1. Choose your artist by browsing the online Teaching Artist Roster
Sort artist by grade level, curriculum focus or fine arts focus. Each artist profile provides you with contact information, art form, curriculum focus, duration of and fees for a residency. Click here for the Roster.
2. Contact the artist you have selected. Spend some quality time talking and emailing with the selected artist. Provide the artist with your academic goals. Ask the artist to build a unique residency based on your specific needs.
3. Schedule your residency. Once your residency has been fleshed out, it's time to implement. Make sure to alert other teachers, staff, parents, PTA and the media. Make a big deal out having your very own artist in residence. Throw a party and invite the Gazette and the Washington Post!
