UMS Artist Facilitators
UMS is seeking enthusiastic, highly skilled artist facilitators for part-time seasonal independent contract employment in conjunction with our 24/25 School Day Performance Season. Applicants should have established experience in any of the following disciplines: dance, music, drama, script/creative writing, puppetry, or video in support of our K-12 SDP+ Program (Pre & Post Performance In-Class Workshops).
Applicants must demonstrate a strong commitment to arts accessibility, social change, and fostering of creativity that align with the driving values behind the UMS Learning & Engagement K-12 Programs. They must be excited to work with young people and be able to collaborate with other educators.
Eligible candidates will be required to develop and implement an arts-focused workshop to prepare students for a live performance experience. Artist facilitators will use their experience as an arts practitioner to creatively investigate the themes and ideas of the performance as the core content of their lesson. Students will learn about art forms in tactile ways allowing them to connect to the performance before and after the show.
