Teaching Artists!
Southern ExposureSan Francisco, CA
SoEx Seeks THREE Lead Teaching Artists, THREE volunteer Artist Assistants, and ONE intern for Mission Voices Summer 2012!
MVS is a five-week intensive summer arts program. It gives young
people the opportunity to exercise leadership skills and participate in
their community by exploring relevant social and personal issues through
visual arts. The program is a collaboration between Southern Exposure's
Artist in Education program and community-based youth organizations in
San Francisco. The program bridges neighborhoods and cultures by pairing
local artists with teens from the Bay Area.
Three Teaching Artists, along with Southern Exposure's Artists in
Education Program Manager, and three Volunteer Assistants, will
collaborate and teach approximately 30 teenagers this summer to produce
an art environment based on a socially relevant theme. The program will
culminate with a final project and exhibition, on view August 8 - 25,
2012.
Artists are responsible for teaching three times per week for the entire
five-week program (Monday, July 9 - Wednesday August 8, 2011), plus
pre-program curriculum planning for four weeks starting June 6, as well
as extra time to install and de-install the final exhibition by August
29. Classes run at Southern Exposure for three hours and take place on
Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 1-4 pm.
