Artist-In-Residence Planning Manual
 

• Artist to Artist is a professional development opportunity for North Dakota teaching artists who are on the Artist-in-Residence roster. The workshop addresses ways of working as teaching artists with the focus of students as the center of what we do. The vision for this workshop is to activate, energize and connect artists who are happy to teach and would like to get better at it, or who are interested in exploring the idea of becoming a teaching artist. We want artist to learn from each other, discover mentoring and partnering opportunities with other teaching artists, build bridges to arts organizations and schools, and recognize and replicate good artist-teaching practices. *2007 Artist to Artist Flyer*
