Residency Requirements
The residency must be an active hands-on educational experience in the arts or traditional cultural practices
The shape and schedule of the activity is up to the sponsor/host and the artist. A residency may occur over one to three days; or be of longer duration, such as two hours a week for six weeks, etc.
This grant does not support private lessons, concerts, assembly programs, or lectures. Supplementary activities such as readings, lecture-demonstrations and performances may accompany the educational activities but cannot be more than 20% of the residency
The residency must be planned collaboratively between the artist(s) and appropriate teacher(s) and/or community representative(s)
A teacher or adult representative of the sponsoring organization must be present at all times during the program and if the artist is working with a large group of Pre-K through 12th grade students, the adult-student ratio must be appropriate to the activity
