A call for PAINTS workshops

The PAINTS program is seeking initial sketches/outlines for workshops that you could lead remotely. All workshops will be either online in real time via Google classrooms, or facilitated by the teacher with paper prompts provided by the artist as a guide to take students through a process. We’re approaching all workshops as one-off live events.

For 2021, we want to add four more to the selection that can be offered to schools and we need workshops for students at all grade levels. From these initial ideas, four will be chosen to be developed into full workshops. At the second stage, selected artists will be paid a stipend of $160 to fully flesh out the workshop description/plan. There will be support from Andrea Ritchie, the PAINTS coordinator in doing this work.

To more closely align our fee structure with CARFAC, the hourly facilitation rate for PAINTS projects is now set at $80/per hour.

Please read the application details on the PAINTS website and contact PAINTS Coordinator Andrea Ritchie for more information at paints@visualarts.ns.ca.

Deadline: January 18 at 5pm.
