Gain teaching experience, earn money, and broaden your community reach. 

Senior Partnership Initiative

Teaching Artists are provided with an opportunity to advance their teaching credentials, receive a prestigious stipend, and participate in an innovative annual exhibition, all while making a positive impact on our community's senior and student population. For the seniors, the Senior Partnership Initiative offers a vehicle for expression while providing encouragement to remain involved and active in their communities, thereby, combating isolation and loneliness. The student participants are exposed to high-quality art making while interacting with seniors, helping to develop a healthy, respectful intergenerational relationships.

Hand-In-Hand Outreach Program

The Hand-in-Hand program allows artists to share their time, skills and enthusiasm while serving as working-artist role models for young residents of city shelters.  Artists receive stipends, develop their teaching credentials with a broad range of students, and engage meaningfully in the lives of community members.
