  • Teaching Artists will be paid $100 per hour of leading the program plus reimbursed $0.56/mile. If the Teaching Artists are designing a program, they will receive additional payment of $25 per session ($125 per program hour). 

  • Teaching Artists must complete this application and then have an informal interview with our Program Director, Hannah Rose, to learn more about you, but also, for you to learn more about us!

    • Attend a Teaching Artist training 

    • Complete two background checks 

    • Submit a W9
