Take an art class free of charge! The work-study program invites serious and mature high school students to combine learning and teaching. Work-study students attend a Gallery/Studio Program teen course free of charge, in exchange for assisting teaching artists in classes for students ages six through twelve. Responsibilities include preparing supplies, helping maintain order in the classroom, and working with students one-on-one. Work-study students are also required to attend an orientation meeting before the semester begins, and a reflection meeting after it ends. Past Gallery/Studio teen classes have included portfolio development, digital photography, drawing the human figure, silkscreen printmaking, and Pop art. Spring, summer, and fall semesters are available.
Work-study students must submit application forms with a valid email address. They will be contacted via email within two weeks of the application deadline to set up an interview. Applicants will be informed of final decisions via email at least one week before classes begin.
