Arts for Learning is pausing the Teaching Artist Studio for the time being.

Since 2013, the Teaching Artist Studio has created a hands-on, differentiated, and reflective learning community for Teaching Artists to deepen their practice, refine their teaching skills, and build meaningful connections with students and educational partners. Arts for Learning Northwest is grateful to our our facilitator partners, Briana Linden and Subashini Ganesan-Forbes, Tony Fuemmeler and Allison Tigard for their work in creating such an impactful learning space and are grateful to have been a part of the professional development of so many incredibly talented artists over these years.

Unfortunately, the arts and education sectors have experienced significant funding changes in recent years. Like many organizations, we have had to make difficult choices about where to prioritize our resources in order to achieve the greatest possible impact. We will continue to support teaching artists both through professional development opportunities and connection with schools and are eager to explore new ways to enhance the impact and accessibility of our public offerings for teaching artists. 

You can find a listing of our current professional learning opportunities for teaching artists and educators on our website: https://artsforlearningnw.org/pdworkshops/

Please sign up for our newsletter for updates on the future of the Teaching Artist Studio and for other professional development opportunities for Teaching Artists and educators.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
