The two-day Residency Planning Seminar is designed to help teaching artists and arts educators develop their skills in planning arts-integrated residencies for students.

 

The Seminar provides an opportunity for teaching artists:

1. To know the purpose and components of arts-integrated instructional residencies.

2. To examine and apply a five step process for planning arts-integrated instructional residencies for students.

Artists that complete the training and subsequent residency proposal will be placed in one (1) five-day school paid residency for the 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 academic year.  After completing this two-year program, 'graduates' will be acknowledged in publications of the Iowa Arts Council and the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center at the University of Northern Iowa.

 

Participation is limited to 15, selected by application.  Applications must be received by July 11th, 2008.  Download an application here.
