Thingamajigs is working with schools to bring Thingamakids! back into classrooms. We are looking for visual or sound artists to lead in-school workshops with students 4th-7th grade. Artists will go into the classroom as a pair (one visual artist, one sound artist) to design and create a sound sculpture with the students. These sculptures will be then displayed at the end of the school year, with all the other schools. This residency will take place sometime between February and May, and can last from 2 weeks to 1 month. Schedule is decided by you and the teacher.
This is a paid residency and we will contact you if we would like to discuss more!
