Teaching artists are professional visual and performing artists who are trained by Lincoln Center Institute in imaginative learning.

Teaching artists design and implement classroom activities and professional development workshop sessions. Teaching artists also possess a strong commitment to working with educators and young people. They serve as representatives of Lincoln Center Institute, embodying and carrying forth both its practice and educational philosophy.

Teaching artists work closely with educators in our partnering schools, consult in the use of Imagination Lesson Plans, lead International Educator Workshops and consultancies, and assist in the development of educator resources.
