Webinar Registration:

Description: This webinar will offer practical approaches and strategies for dealing with the many situations which present themselves to teaching artists (TAs) working in schools, in out-of-school settings, and in studio and community arts programs and workshops. It will stress problem-solving techniques, ways to make the most of good communication with other teachers, staff, and students themselves, and real-life examples of ways to work through common and uncommon challenges with a variety of learners, including those with disabilities and with behavioral issues. It will also touch on TA-teacher collaboration and how it helps meet these needs.

Intended Audience: Teaching Artists, teachers who have TAs in their classes, paraprofessionals, school specialists (OT, PT, Speech and Language, etc.), specials teachers (Art, Music, Dance, Theater), community art program organizers, administrators interested in arts programming in their schools or organizations.

In recent years the Kennedy Center has dramatically expanded its education programs to reach young people, teachers, and families throughout the nation. A clear sign of the Center’s commitment to the arts for young people and families is the Family Theater, which opened in 2005.

The education programs of the Kennedy Center have become models for communities across the country and have unlocked the door to learning for millions of young people.
