Arts Immersion Teacher Institutes

The MCC's Arts Immersion Teacher Institutes provide educators the rare opportunity to work in depth; explore the contexts and meanings of an exemplary work of art; engage in criticism and art-making; and transfer their experiences to the classroom. The 2009 Arts Immersion Teacher Institute application deadline has passed.

The MCC will award $25,000 each to three institutes offered by Massachusetts non-profit organizations, schools, universities, and others. Institutes must take place over five days between July 1 and August 14, 2009 with a reconvening day in December 2009.

Each institute will be designed for arts specialists, classroom teachers, teaching artists, and school administrators to immerse them in the aesthetic, historical, and technical study of one exemplary work of art as an "anchor work." The institutes will impart the knowledge, skills, and pedagogy necessary for participants to return to their classrooms to immerse students in the study of the same work or another of their own choosing.
