Teaching Artist Portfolio Course

Dear Art Educators:
MassArt is offering a great opportunity to work with artist Chandra Ortiz (nominee for this year’s ICA Foster Prize). This evening studio course is specifically designed to engage art educators in their own studio practices in a supportive community of artists/teachers. Please consider taking advantage of this unique opportunity and bring your art educator friends! The course description and Chandra’s bio are below.
Best regards,
Dan Serig
Chair and Associate Professor of Art Education
 

AETE309 Teaching Artists’ Portfolio
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Designed for art educators and teaching artists who desire a like-minded community engaged in art making, students in this course search for ongoing connections between creating and teaching. Classroom goals and teaching styles in direct relation to how artists experience making, viewing, and learning are considered. This course further supports teachers in using their own art making, personal sources of inspiration, and reactions to works of art, in teaching. Students work in self-selected media in an interdisciplinary environment.
