The post from Industryelle reminded me of the project I worked on at a school last year as Artist in Residency. Yes, I took my oxy acetylene tanks to a school and worked with kids grades 4-8. We decided to make a steel book. The project was called creative literacy. Each class of students had to brainstorm page design ideas. Yes, I made them agree to create one page of a steel book that was bound together by a car spring. This is one of the pictures from the residency.  The desire for income

The desire for income spurs me on to do the occasional artist residency. I get contacted by a school, day carecenter, art center to do a demonstration. I tell them my fee and my supply costs. I tell them how many students I will work with during a set period of time. I write a contract with the above details in it and I make them sign it. Then I set the date and tool up for the fun.

school residency
When you "have time", Elizabeth, would you tell how you created the artist in residency? OR how you found out about it and applied? Perhaps my question should be put over at the "Business of Art" group?
