Teaching Artist
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title "Teaching Artist" refers an artist who has the expertise to share their artistry in arts and non-arts curricula.
This term applies to artists in all artistic fields, including theatre (actors, directors, playwrights, designers, etc.), music (composers, singers, instrumentalists, conductors, etc.), dance (dancers, choreographers, designers, etc.), literary arts (poets, writers, etc.), the visual arts (painters, printmakers, sculpters, photographers, filmakers, graphic artists, etc.), as well as other fields of creative expression.
Teaching Artists are professional artists who integrate their artistic elements, perspectives, and skills into a wide range of educational settings.
