Join us for an insightful session on effectively supporting teaching artists. Despite our best efforts, teaching artists often don't receive the recognition they deserve. Many experience burnout and leave their positions in search of better benefits and support systems. While comprehensive healthcare may not be feasible for many programs, there are other ways to create a fulfilling and sustainable environment for teaching artists. Engage with fellow administrators, share ideas, and explore innovative solutions to empower teaching artists.

Don’t miss this opportunity to make a significant impact and elevate the success of your teaching artists!
