Art Fluent invites artists worldwide to submit artwork to our online exhibit, UNITY.
THEME
The state of being united. Unity can show us a world through a different lens. Artists use it to visually tie together certain elements (color, line, shape, texture) within their composition. It gives us a feeling of cohesion where it connects these principles and helps us make sense of the work as complete - helping to deliver an understanding of harmony and balance. A piece would not be finished without it; how does your work communicate unity? Show us UNITY from your perspective.

Description
Writers in the Schools (WITS), a literary arts education program of Seattle Arts & Lectures (SAL), places professional local writers in public schools throughout the Puget Sound region, as well as Seattle Children’s Hospital, for extended creative writing residencies during the school day. WITS empowers young people to discover and develop their authentic writing and performance voices as they build skills and self-confidence. Through WITS, students become the authors of their own lives. We believe each student can thrive when developing the social-emotional tools that writing provides.
For the coming 2022/23 school year, WITS is hiring a paid Writer-in-Residence—a practicing writer in the community—who will work as an independent teaching artist in a creative writing residency in a public school K-12 classroom. We are looking for poets, prose writers, playwrights, and cartoonists/graphic novelists, and for writers who can bring varied interests, passions, and play to a classroom. WITS Writers collaborate directly with public school teachers to create environments that foster a sense of inquiry, creativity, and inclusion.
We especially encourage Black writers, Indigenous writers, writers of color, writers from the LGBTQ+ community, bilingual writers, and writers from interdisciplinary backgrounds to apply. WITS Writers must show a demonstrated commitment to anti-racist pedagogy and practice.
WITS Staff will work with the WITS Writer to make a school placement in an elementary, middle, or high school that is compatible with their schedule. We do the majority of our hiring and placements during the fall, but anticipate some residencies to still be determined as the year progresses. School placements vary and may be either extended weekly residencies, or take place over a shorter window of time, as a multi-day per-week intensive.
Writers in the Schools (WITS) has three primary goals:
· Inspire students to engage in the writing process, build social emotional learning skills,
increase their self-confidence, and find joy and belonging.
· Invigorate the teaching of writing by providing teachers with innovative lessons and literature, fresh techniques, and the time and encouragement to join their students in writing.
· Support and sustain a positive culture of reading and writing at each school.
· Learn more about the program and current WITS Writers at: lectures.org/youth-programs/wits/
Required Qualifications:
· A demonstrated commitment to anti-racist pedagogy, disability justice and access, social-emotional learning, and a vested interested in making classrooms a space for joy and belonging for all students; WITS Writers should have a student-centered approach.
· 1-2 years of teaching or mentoring experience with elementary, middle, or high school students.
· Desire, ability, and flexibility to collaborate with public school teachers.
· Reliability in all scheduled time in schools.
· Excellent written and oral communication skills and a willingness to grow, learn, and adapt.
· A sense of humor, flexibility, and responsiveness to differing student needs within a public school classroom setting.
· Positive attitude; friendly and respectful manner when working with students, WITS Writers, staff, teachers, and other school partners.
· Outstanding organizational skills and meticulous attention to detail.
· Established record of community engagement (e.g. through record of publications, performances, or other community events). WITS Writers actively work on their own writing and are eager participants in the Seattle literary community.
· Availability to complete every session of a scheduled residency—either throughout the academic year or in an intensive, 1-2 week multi-day session (October – June). All placements to be determined in coordination with WITS Staff.
Desired Qualifications:
· Bilingual
· Experience with English Language learners or Special Education students
Expectations:
· Guide students through exciting and innovative creative writing lessons.
· Provide regular (at least 2x per residency) written feedback to your students on their writing, depending on appropriate developmental stage (elementary, middle, high).
· Attend a half-day Writers Retreat (September 15, 12:30-4:30 p.m.).
· Attend Writer Cohort Meetings (4 over the course of the school year).
· Attend a residency planning meeting with WITS Staff and Classroom Teacher(s) at the beginning of each residency.
· Prepare and circulate to teachers and WITS Staff an abbreviated syllabus, taking into account your classroom teachers’ curriculum and goals (knowing things might change!).
· Be observed by WITS Staff 1-2x throughout the year, and participate in one-on-one debrief sessions.
· Collect student permissions and excellent student work throughout the year and submit to WITS Staff on deadline for online and print publications.
· Coordinate end-of-residency culminating events for your classes.
· Choose and champion Year-End Reader students for an annual student reading in May.
· Complete an annual self-evaluation and review with WITS Staff at the end of the year.
· Maintain confidentiality about all student work.
· Actively participate in WITS Writer Cohort events (e.g. Writer Potluck lesson sharing, Local Voices readings, and other celebrations throughout the year); have a vested interest in building community among WITS Writers.
Compensation & Opportunities:
· Compensation for a full residency (approximately 84 teaching hours, but varies) starts at $90 per contracted teaching hour. This rate assumes outside-of-class time spent on preparation and feedback.
· Writers are paid in monthly installments. Partial or greater residencies are scaled accordingly.
· Free tickets to all SAL events in the 2022-23 Season (lectures.org/events).
· Some funds are available for ongoing professional development; other professional development is provided by WITS for free throughout the year.

Why MoPOP?
We’re really glad you’re thinking about joining the team at MoPOP! We believe pop culture is a universal language capable of building connections across a range of people, no matter our differences in race, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, ability, education, socio-economic status, ethnicity, country of origin, or any other characteristic that makes us who we are. For more than twenty years, we have been showcasing how music, film, fashion, video games, sports, and more spark those connections and create a lasting cultural impact.
MoPOP provides both a physical space and an emotional and intellectual opportunity for people from any background to explore, find and build community, and recognize their own creative potential. This applies not only to our guests, but also to our staff — be it in designing an educational program to engage the next generation of creators, trying to reach a new audience with a marketing initiative, preserving an artifact in our collection, or providing excellent customer service to a visitor. If this sounds like something you’d be into, we’d love to hear from you!
MoPOP’s Mission and Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility
Our mission is to make creative expression a life-changing force by offering experiences that inspire and connect our communities. A nonprofit grounded in five core values — open arms, creative exchanges, light bulb moments, pursuing excellence, and excitement — MoPOP is actively committed to ongoing learning in the areas of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA). In partnership with our community, we hope to also develop safe spaces for their application. This includes taking steps to continue increasing our awareness of institutional “-isms,” as well as uncovering and undoing the ways they show up in museum culture. We recognize this is a process that requires intentionality, energy, and resources, and we are developing a DEIA framework that can cultivate a work environment and museum experience that is truly welcoming for all.
We are committed to creating an inclusive and equitable workplace, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We believe that having staff, interns, and volunteers with diverse backgrounds enables us to better meet our mission and encourage BIPOC, women, and LGBTQIA+ individuals to apply. We acknowledge that our work to build safe spaces and better systems for traditionally marginalized groups is ongoing and will require constant vigilance and expect all MoPOP employees to be part of our DEIA journey.
