  • Engage in multiple Professional Developments to benefit from targeted, in-the-moment feedback on instruction, accelerating learning and growth with unparalleled support.

We invite you to apply if you:

  • Have graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Visual, Fine, or Studio Arts (Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, and Ceramics) or Art Education;

  • Have an outstanding record of academic achievement;

  • Have an art or art education portfolio that showcases your skill-set, and demonstrates your passion for art and learning;
