This list has been
developed through a panel process. Artists that want to be included on this list
must apply to the Council, and are selected through a review process that
involves a panel of peers and the Council staff. Once qualified, artists
are listed for three years, at which time they must renew their application.
Schools are
encouraged to check references and interview candidates before committing to an
artist. Whereas the Council feels strongly that the artists on this list
are highly qualified artists, we do not guarantee a good fit for any particular
school or situation. Background checks are the responsibility of the
individual school.
Schools that wish to
apply for an artist residency grant may use an artist on this list with a
guarantee that the artistic quality of the program will not be questioned in the
application process. Applications will be reviewed for feasibility and
appropriate venues.
FUNDING
Schools wishing to
apply for an artist residency may do so by completing Form 1 & 2 of the
grant application (see pages 25-35 of Grant
Guidelines). The Council operates its artist residency program on a
particular formula. This formula is a statement of the funding available
through the Council. Some artists may request higher payments than are
indicated in this formula. If a school chooses to hire an artist that
requires higher fees, the school is responsible for covering the balance in
fees. The Council will fund artist residency programs for a maximum of
four consecutive years. It is our hope that after the fourth year, the
school will have been able to seek other funding in order to maintain the
residency. Click

indicates funding for 6 weeks, 9 weeks, 18 weeks (one semester) and 36 weeks
(full year).
GUEST ARTISTS

within their particular art form, offering age appropriate instruction in the
arts.

seminars and collaboration with classroom teachers.
