Artists’ Residencies

FREE Webinar

School Arts Residencies During COVID?  Yes We Can! 

Monday, December 14 @ 4 pm.  

As you know all too well, school visual and performing arts teachers are experiencing diminished programming options; many music rooms have been repurposed for regular instruction due to their size and height, offering more room for social distancing; and some VPA teachers have even been re-assigned. Many schools are completely remote now. So how can residencies possibly occur?? The Maine Arts Commission presents a panel of Maine teaching artists who will share tips for successful school residencies happening right now, and some of the obstacles they’ve addressed. Bring questions and if time allows, we’ll hold small group brainstorm sessions on personal next steps. 

Panelists 

• Tim Christensen, Clay Artist, Roque Bluffs bio
• Dana Legawiec, Theater Artist, Bowdoinham bio
• Bridget Matros,  Visual and Performing Artist, Belfast bio
• Alicia Phelps, Piano and Voice Artist, Director of Community Partnerships and Special Programs, 317 Main.  bio
