Step 2 - Timbrel Artist in Residence Program Information
Please introduce yourself and your course to us. Your responses need not be lengthy, but should be substantial enough to provide the selection committee with a sense of who you are as an artist and teacher, and how you would interact with the NHC community.
Tell us about yourself! How would your involvement at the Institute contribute to the NHC Institute community? What is your artistic practice? What is your teaching/facilitating experience? What communities are you involved in?
Please provide a 50-100 word bio that will appear on the NHC website if you are selected as Artist-in-Residence.
Please explain how your course will use your art form to explore this year’s theme, חֲזַק חֲזַק וְנִתְחַזֵּק Hazak hazak venithazek, embodying strength and communal resilience as we look back and look forward. And please tell us what your students will use this exploration to create.
Please outline a few ideas for community-wide programming that you can offer.
Please outline a few ideas for a Kidstitute program that you can offer. Kidstitute is where the children in the community spend much of the day, ranging in age from infants to pre-teens, though you can target your program to a particular age range.
If we feel moving the Summer Institute online is safer than being in-person at the University of Hartford, would you be interested in serving as Artist in Residence for an online Institute? If that decision is reached, the NHC will give you as much notice as possible and will assist you in altering your programming plans. We have held two successful online Summer Institutes, and while we very much hope and intend to be back in person this year, we are aware of the uncertainty of the future, and take safety seriously. *

Yes, I would still be interested in being Artist in Residence online No, I am only interested in being Artist in Residence in person

Step 4 - Additional Information
For our planning purposes, will your course include some form of a presentation or performance by the class to the Institute community?

No Yes Maybe
If yes, please describe the presentation and performance, the space or venue you would like for it, and when it might take place.
Please provide any other information that you think we should have when considering this proposal. (This may include links to blogs or web sites, videos, reviews, music, images) or other resources about you or that you feel would assist the committee in making its decision. You may also send additional documents or files to air@havurah.org. Please let us know below that you will be sending it, and reference this application in your email.
In the event that your proposal is not accepted for the Artist in Residence Program, would you like the Course Committee to consider your application as a possible course offering for Institute 2022? (Note that Course Teachers receive an Institute registration subsidy, but unlike Artists-in-Residence, no honorarium or materials/travel budget.) *

Yes No
