Serve as an AmeriCorps Resident Teaching Artist!

ArtistYear's ‪AmeriCorps‬ members serving a second year as Senior Resident Teaching Artists share how the connections they formed with their communities inspire them to serve.
"I have seen the importance of community through my past service year and the personal growth of each student. It's about believing that your presence matters, as you believe in what they used to think was impossible." Niyada Birch | Senior Resident Teaching Artist | Philadelphia, PA

Artists Serving our Nation as Teaching Artists

ArtistYear is dedicated to bringing arts education to all students.

To ensure that every student in America has the opportunity to reap the significant benefits associated with arts learning, ArtistYear created the first National AmeriCorps program for artists to serve to our nation.

We develop, support, and place exceptional Resident Teaching Artists to serve full-time at K-12 schools and communities across the country.

This innovative strategy significantly expands arts and creative learning opportunities for the communities we serve, while improving student academic and personal development, enhancing school climate and capacity, and developing a new generation of artists steeped in national service.

Support ArtistYear's vision to expand creative learning

Art is a powerful, evidence-based tool for helping students reach their full potential. Together, we can ensure that all students have the tools they need to succeed.
