We are a small, creative Presbyterian congregation in the Fox Chase neighborhood of Philadelphia, looking to have our horizons expanded in terms of art and creativity.
We received a grant to start an Artist-in-Residence program. This is a 10-month commitment, working 20 hours each month in September 2022. We intend this program to be a learning experience for both the artist and the congregation. We also want it to benefit both by having lots of joy and fun.
This program requires two things from the artist:
- Each month, the artist will produce a new project. This could be a mural on the back wall of our Fellowship Hall, creating an interactive way to be front facing the community (perhaps a large chalkboard for community members to write down something that they want to do in their lifetime...), a creative design for our website, or a new artistic element created during the worship service, etc. The possibilities are endless!
- Every other month, the artist will teach a class on painting, sculpting, or other artistic things. This is open to whatever the artist enjoys doing and can teach.
Please provide:
1) Resume
2) 10 images of your work, a link to your website, Instagram page, YouTube channel...
3) Cover letter - Please address why this program inspires you!
