Program overview
Fee Structure for 2008-2009 Beginning with the 2008-2009 school year, MAP artists have the option to offer programs less than a five-day residency. If the school and the artist agree on programming that is less than five days, the following fee schedule will be used. If the school desires and the artist agrees, additional workshops or evening programming may be scheduled. For contract purposes, the fee is determined by the length of stay in the school district, not the number of days in individual schools. For instance, if an artist works in a school district at five different schools over a five day period, the five-day rate is used (not five single-day rates). Use the following table to find the appropriate fee.
How artists can participate Artists who have prepared programs for hands-on school visits can apply to be included on the MAP artist roster. Applications are generally taken in the spring of each year, and WAANC members review the new applicants in an interview process, usually in June or July. The updated artist roster is then shared with schools at the beginning of each school year. During a MAP visit an artist works with up to five classes a day. Programs vary depending on the length of stay, number of target students, grade levels, etc. The artist develops lesson plans for each format used, giving students an interactive, hands-on experience with their art form. Some full length residencies may build towards a culminating “informance” or “sharing” where students perform or show what they have learned (for example: a puppet residency might end with a puppet show featuring the students’ puppets in skits the students have written under the guidance and direction of the MAP artist that week). If you are interested in applying for inclusion on the MAP artist roster, contact Mountain Arts Program representative Rod Bowling at the Madison County Arts Council, 828-649-1301 or download the forms below.
