Artists

Schools across the City of Milwaukee benefit from the work of Arts @ Large and the Artist Educators that partner with us.  Short and long-term artist residencies are available for artists seeking to use their artform as a way to engage students in learning across the spectrum of academics, art and music.

The 2023-24 Artist-in-Residence program at the Arts @ Large Community Center features a diverse group of artists selected from among more than 60 applicants by a jury of past artists-in-residence and arts professionals. Artists featured will connect their work to one of four cornerstones that guide Arts @ Large programs: Technology and Innovation, Eco-Literacy, Peacemaking, and Civil Rights. Stay tuned for the announcement of our selected 2023-24 Artists!

Arts @ Large offers professional development opportunities to assist aspiring artist educators in building the skills and confidence to work in the classroom with K-12 students, and at our Community Center with people of all ages and a variety of abilities.  Topics span a wide spectrum including:

• Classroom Management
• Trauma-Informed Teaching
• Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
• Building Success as an Independent Artist
• Designing and Teaching a Master Class

We accept original works of art from artists for commission sales in our Arts @ Large Marketplace. Submit your artwork for consideration of acceptance into the Arts @ Large Marketplace.
