Call for Entries: A Summer Work Opportunity for Teaching Artists of All Disciplines

Are you a professional artist who enjoys working with high school students in a mentorship/role model capacity? Do you know what it takes to become a professional in the workforce?

Young Audiences of Northeast Ohio is soliciting applications and project proposals from teaching artists who wish to participate in the Summer 2008 ArtWorks program. ArtWorks is an arts-based job training program for area high school students designed to provide training in the arts while developing skills for the workplace. Selected artists will work with diverse populations of young people with a broad range of artistic experience, to perform and exhibit public works of art and to guide apprentices in the development of a professional portfolio. Proposals from artists of the following disciplines are requested: theatre, film/photography, music, dance, performance art, visual arts (all forms), culinary arts, and fashion/costume design.

ArtWorks will operate June 18–July 31, Monday-Friday, 9 AM – 4 PM, though some Saturdays and evenings are required for performances/exhibits. The program will take place mostly outdoors in tents on Wade Oval in University Circle, Cleveland.

Applications must be submitted no later than 5PM on Thursday, February 21, 2008.
