ABOUT

MISSION

Venice Arts mission is to ignite youths’ imagination, mentor their creativity, and expand their sense of possibility through high quality, accessible media–based arts education programs. Venice Arts also serves as a catalyst for people of all ages, living in low–income or underrepresented communities, to create and share personal and community stories through photography, film, and multi–media.

Venice Arts is always interested in receiving résumés from qualified, professional artists interested in designing a syllabus for either our academic year or summer projects. If there are no projects open, we will keep your résumé on file.

Qualifications

Must be a photographer. Background and/or experience in documentary work and digital storytelling. Multimedia skills  are a plus but not essential. Prior experience teaching young people photography required (minimum 1-year experience). Must be available for approximately 3-hours during after–school periods and/or on weekends. Those interested in leading projects during the academic year must be available from October-May. Those interested in summer projects must be available during the month of July.

How to Apply

Please email your résumé, along with a cover letter, sample syllabi, and the attached application highlighting relevant experience ("Contract Faculty" in the subject line), to [email protected].  Please, no phone enquiries or walk–ins.  We are sorry, but because we receive significant interest in these opportunities, we are not able to respond to every artist’s submission.
