Suggestions:
Projects centered on a storybook or novel, a historical time period, or various math and science concepts.

Pricing:
1-Hour Workshop ..................................................................................................  $75.00/Class
Materials Fee ................................................................... $1.00-$3.00/Student (Based on project)

The Art of Books: Enhancing Literacy through Art

During a weeklong residency (five days) the teaching artists will work with a grade level and will take students through the entire process of the creation of a children’s book. Students will be able to write and illustrate their very own book.  The project will start with the writing process to create a clear, well-organized story.  The students will then be able to move into the illustration process, breaking the text into pages and creating preliminary drawings through storyboards. Once the flow of the text and pictures is determined, students will work on the finished illustrations. For upper grade
levels a design component can be included, laying out their entire book on the computer in a school lab.  

For a shorter residency (three days) the classroom teacher can prep the story writing with the students; the teaching artists will lead the illustration and design components.  
 
Pricing:
Week Long Residency ................................................................................. $1,400/Grade Level
Shortened Residency - $900/Grade Level
Materials Fee - $1.00/Student

Make Your School a Creative Community

The teaching artists will facilitate a school-wide art project designed to include all grade levels and positively impact the school community. The project could be tailored to any theme.

Suggestions:
Murals (permanent or moveable), flags and banners, or smaller scale projects.

Pricing:
$250-$2,000 + Materials (depending on the size and scope of the project)
