Artist in Schools Scheme 2003/2004
General
Information
The Arts Office of Clare County Council, in association with Clare Education
Centre, and supported by the Arts Council of Ireland, is pleased to announce
that the successful Artist in Schools Scheme is recommencing in October 2003.
This project, available to schools throughout Clare, is aimed at increasing young people’s exposure to the visual arts by actively involving them in artistic experiences and opportunities. The scheme gives schools the opportunity to have professional artists visit and work with both the pupils and teachers. For the first time, the scheme is being opened to all disciplines of the arts e.g. drama, dance and music.
Following the successful
move to longer residencies in 2002/ 2003, all applications under the visual
arts strand will be for residencies up to 25 hours long.
All other residencies will be for 15 hours long.
