Part-Time Teaching Artists

Articulture seeks part-time contractual teaching artists with experience in various visual fine arts disciplines for children, teen, and/or adult classes.

We are also seeking artists who can teach fine crafts such as leather shoemaking, fabric dying, felting, etc. Additionally, we are interested in opportunities to offer classes of unique arts disciplines.

Teaching opportunities:

Year-round, visual arts classes and workshops are offered to to the adults in the community of all abilities and creative skills.

We have relationships with a number of MPS after school programs who turn to us for quality arts programming. These teaching positions are ongoing throughout the school year. We also offer in school art-in-residencies as requested. 

Grant funded partnerships enable us to work with social service organizations to offer Art and Healing classes for vulnerable populations. This program focuses on art as meditation, self-identity, self-worth, a sense of belonging, and exploring loss and hope through creativity. Past programs have been with adults with severe and persistent mental illnesses, women in substance abuse treatment and rehabilitation, homeless children, affordable housing programs, newly housed adults, at-risk teens, and adults with developmental and physical disabilities.

There are occasional opportunities to work on community public art projects. The Youth Arts Collaborative (YAC) public art program engages urban teens, teamed with our teaching artists, to problem solve with organizations and communities through the creation of public art. The core of our community public art projects revolve around youth mentoring and issues of social change.

To Apply:

• Please send a teaching resume and samples of your artwork.

• A minimum of 2 years of teaching experience in the visual arts is a must.
