Instructor Call – County Arts Lab

County Arts is currently seeking course proposals for paid programming to take place in early and late spring at the County Arts Lab, which hosts multi-week courses for children, youth, and adults, as well as one-off workshops for youth and adults. Courses in all artistic mediums are welcomed, including, but not limited to, visual arts, dance, music, writing, and more. We are especially in search of instructors who have unique and engaging course ideas for kids.

We are also accepting submissions for online courses that teach digital skills (e.g. animation, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). You must demonstrate that you have the experience and technical expertise to run an online course. Application deadline is January 15th, 2025.

If this is your first time applying to teach at the County Arts Lab, we recommend proposing a one-off workshop.

Eligibility:

• Must be a member of County Arts in good standing
• Must be a practicing artist with some instructing/facilitating experience or equivalent skills
• Propose a project that is feasible with the material resources available at the County Arts Lab
• Instructors for Children/Youth programs must submit a clear Vulnerable Sector (police record) Check

Questions/Application Assistance: Please note that Programs Manager Stacey Sproule (stacey@countyarts.ca) will be “out of office” attending an artist residency for the month of December. Depending on the nature of your question, you may have to wait for a response until the week of January 6th. Stacey can also take alternative applications (e.g. via Zoom) upon her return. For general questions in the interim, please send to Heather McCorquodale, Membership Services Coordinator, at info@countyarts.ca.
