Teaching Artist Training
Local teaching artists who are looking to further their training are invited to participate in LBC’s Teaching Artist Training (TAT) series. TAT provides ongoing training in arts integration, lesson creation, classroom management, and more. Aligning with our John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts partnership, National teaching artist Sean Layne leads a three-day seminar to kick off the year. Following this, teaching artists will design and implement multi-session residencies with the support of Luther Burbank Center staff and subsequent workshops. Once completed, artists will be eligible for inclusion in LBC’s esteemed cadre of teaching artists.
