Teaching Artist Roster

7 new artists added

The Maine Arts Commission (MAC) is excited to add the following artists to the Teaching Artist Roster:

• Ian Bannon – Theatre and Visual Arts
• Doug Day – Music and Theatre
• Gayle Fitzpatrick – Visual Arts
• Richard B. Klyver – Visual Arts
• Helena Melone – Dance
• John Morris – Dance
• Brigid Randowski – Media Arts

The artists on the roster have demonstrated mastery of an artistic discipline, knowledge and expertise in sequential arts instruction, good communications skills, planning and organizational ability, and an understanding of their target learners.

Teaching Artists are professional artists who are dedicated to lifelong learning and arts education, have made it an integral part of their professional practice, and who have cultivated skills as educators in concert with their skills as artists.

Since the establishment of the roster in December of 2014 MAC has conducted three rounds of applications. The Teaching Artists are available to conduct high-quality learning opportunities for students in school settings and community organizations that offer arts education. We encourage educators and those responsible for arts education to utilize the roster by communicating directly with the Teaching Artists.
