Join Our Artistic Team

How to join our team

1. Complete the Artist Application Form and send us a resume and cover letter describing your experience and/or interest in working with youth. Previous experience with youth is not required.

2. We will call you to conduct a phone interview.

3. If the interview goes well, we’ll invite you to attend a training session where we will conduct a workshop just as we do at a program site. This will give you an opportunity to experience our work first-hand and participate in a Q & A afterward. If it feels right to both of us, we will invite you to continue training in our curriculum and methodology before joining a site team.

4. You can elect to attend the 20 required training sessions and 4 site visits, or you may choose to participate on a limited basis as an occasional guest artist. You will receive some pay for training.

5. You will be paid a stipend once you begin working at a program site. Stipends start at $80 per workshop.

6. Once on a working site team, you will be working with youth at least one afternoon a week, leading multidisciplinary arts workshops that build toward a public performance and art show about issues the kids choose to focus on. A ratio of at least one adult to six children ensures individualized mentoring and attention.
