Artist-in-Residence Opportunity

Sarah Beller is serving as co-coordinator for the Artist-in-Residence program at the National Havurah Committee's Summer Institute, a week-long celebration of Jewish learning and living attended by a diverse group of Jews from all over North America (Conservative, Reconstructionist, Reform, Renewal, Orthodox, single, partnered, young, old, LGBT, etc.).

Under a grant from the Poretsky Foundation, the NHC sponsors two Jewish Artists-in-Residence to teach and be part of the Institute community. The application forms are available online, and those who wish may apply.

The Poretsky Artist-in-Residence grant is ideal for those wishing to explore a participatory project or thematic course idea in a supportive community that itself includes a number of talented artists. The program is particularly searching for artist-teachers who can help others become art-makers for the week, and who will participate actively as both teachers and learners in the Institute community that forms each summer. For more details, please see www.havurah.org the letter and application (due November 28).
