Three unique kinds of residencies are normally available: 

Core Residencies offer children a 4-year sequence of language arts and visual storytelling activities linked to literacy learning, school-based benchmarks and innovative environmental curriculum.  (Grades 2-5)
Modified Core Residencies available for grades (K-1).

Site Specific Residencies are designed in collaboration with individual teachers or teaching teams.  They integrate storytelling, song-making and illustration into benchmark curriculum, to deepen & invigorate the learning process.                                 (Grades 1-8) 

Special Projects engage students in creating environmental public art within their school or community, and the design and implementation of sustainability projects. (Grades 1-8)

The After-School Performance Project involves students in acting, stagecraft, music and writing opportunities which
lead to performance.   (Grades 5-8)

  Residency details, supplemental teacher’s information and fees available upon request.


  Is my school eligible for discounted residencies? 

    Schools with populations of 70%+ low-income students receive generous discounts, as our

    Yes, although we often work with teaching teams to serve all children in a grade level.


  How many sessions do Residencies involve?

    Core residencies vary between 6-8 sessions, once or twice weekly.

    Site Specific residencies may be brief (3-5 sessions), typical (5-10 sessions) or extended (8-16 sessions)

    Special Projects vary, according to the needs of the individual group.


  Can we work together to tailor a residency just for my students?
