The College of Western Idaho art department is accepting applications for the “Visiting Artist” program which will provide an educational experience to CWI students, faculty and community at large.

This program will bring two local or regional artists, one fall semester and one spring semester, to the College of Western Idaho. Each artist will present their work in a public lecture, hold studio critiques with art students and teach a two day workshop in the art classroom at the College of Western Idaho. The workshops are usually held Friday afternoon and half-day on Saturday for a total of eight hours. Artists are invited to display their work in our gallery space to accompany their residency.

Our program is relatively new. We offer foundation courses in basic 2-D and 3-D Design, Drawing, Painting, and Digital Photography. We are seeking to create a unique experience for our students with opportunities like the Visiting Artist Program.

The artist will be compensated $500.00 for their three day visit to the college. The deadline for the application is January 15, 2014.

THE FOLLOWING MUST BE INCLUDED IN YOUR APPLICATION PACKAGE:
 Artist Resume
 Artist Statement
 Artist Portfolio (10-20 images on a CD)
 Workshop Proposal and Outline (detailed explanation of project, timeline/schedule, materials list)
