WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSION FORM

WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSION FORM - MISSA 2027 and 2028

Please upload your photos and fill out the information below.
MISSA will take place:

June 25 - July 9, 2027

June 23 - July 7, 2028

Please note that the MISSA Summer Arts Program will be held at Pearson College in Metchosin in 2027, and 2028.

Would you like to teach to an inspiring group of adult art students? How about becoming an instructor at MISSA?

In early fall, the MISSA Program Committee starts planning the Summer Arts Program and they need to confirm instructors in time to be able to launch the full program on-line in January of the new year. As instructor contracts are signed, social media posts are made to help build excitement about this newly added summer workshop. We call them "sneak peeks" and they really help to stir up interest leading up to the program launch.

Teaching contracts are offered on a per-workshop basis and are not an assurance of year-to-year teaching. Workshop proposals must be submitted each year and are the first step needed in this process. You will be asked to complete a workshop form. It is suggested that instructors who are new to MISSA start with a two-day proposal, but depending on the complexity of the workshop and/or the distance needed to travel, an initial 5-day proposal is completely acceptable. Instructors receive an hourly teaching fee (6 hrs/day) and all meals and accommodations are covered while on campus. Economy travel is covered for out of town instructors and the reimbursement of supplies used for teaching is to be discussed ahead of time with MISSA.

Instructor FAQ to be updated for 2027. Coming soon!

If you are interested in becoming an instructor at MISSA, please apply with the following:

1. A brief bio with teaching, education and reference details
2. Short course proposal (2-day or 5-day). Class size is limited to 12 students and classes run 9-4 each day.
3. Contact info and website details (Please note that a website or equivalent web presence is a must.)
4. We require hi res images from you for our promotional efforts, action shots and finished works.
5. We require a commitment from you to help us promote your workshop.

Please consider teaching with us! We look forward to hearing from you for MISSA 2027 and beyond!

If you are interested in teaching in 2027/2028 please complete this initial proposal.
