Women's Studio Workshop
Art-in-Education Fellowship
Spring Fellow (April)

This opportunity is for artists with teaching experience and knowledge of intaglio, silkscreen, or hand papermaking who are interested in creating their own work while also working with local public school students.

Women's Studio Workshop's Art-In-Education Program, Hands-on-Art (HOA), is a collaboration with the Kingston City School District and has become a national model for arts education. HOA provides a high quality arts experience by bringing students to a professional arts space to spend concentrated time learning printmaking, papermaking, and book arts.

Spring Fellows Requirements: Must have teaching experience and knowledge in one of the studio areas (silkscreen, etching, or papermaking). Fellows teach two days per week for three weeks. In exchange fellows receive housing and access to the studio of their choice (during open studio hours) for five weeks.

Fall Fellows Requirements: Must have teaching experience and knowledge in one of the studio areas (silkscreen, papermaking, or etching). Fellows teach one day per week and pay $300 for a four week fellowship. In exchange they receive access to the studio of their choice (during open studio hours).
