Artist in Residence Imagine having a professional actor, writer, director or designer available to work with and learn from in your school. The ATYP Artist in Residence program embeds an artist in your school to work with your class, a year group or even your whole school, to enhance your students’ experience of learning drama. Each residency is unique and designed to fit your specific needs. A Resident Artist can: • provide a series of drama workshops for students at times convenient for you, • team–teach creative arts lessons, • upskilling teachers in the process, collaborate on a performance or school production, contributing their professional expertise. How our artists complement your program is up to you. Contact us to start a conversation about how this exciting initiative can work for you.
