The North Carolina Arts Council is offering Arts in Education Grants to give your faculty, parents and students a chance to work with a world class artist in the 2012 – 2013 school year.
Storytellers, dancers, musicians and visual artists can provide an enriching, entertaining, educational arts experience that your community will never forget. This season, international, award winning storyteller and published author, Donna Washington, will be offering two different residency experiences.
For Level I residency grants which last five days, Donna offers ‘Stand and Deliver’. This fast paced, hands on skill building experience is designed to help students build self-confidence when they present themselves and their ideas. It will also improve visualization, communication and cooperation skills while working on group projects. It includes a parent student night that focuses on encouraging family members to listen to and respect each other.
For Level II residency grants which may last up to ten days or more, Donna will be happy to meet with your principal and teachers to plan and organize an innovative, fun and exciting arts exposure that is custom tailored to your students needs.

The application deadline for Artist Residency Grant applications is March 1 st , 2011 at 5p.m.
