SHARED VISIONS: A Teen Mural Training Program
CALLING ALL TEEN ARTISTS! Sign up to be part of SACA's Shared Visions: A Teen Mural Training Program happening in July 2024!
We will only have a crew of 8 teens for the program this year.
DEADLINE TO APPLY: 14 June 2024
You will be notified by 17 June 2024 about if you will be able to be part of this year's program.
We're inviting a group of 8 teens to be part of this program where they will learn more about San Anto Cultural Arts, our murals, and how to create a community-based mural using our community process. Teens will learn from the Community Mural Coordinator and other muralists throughout the process to develop their artistic skills, but also their communication & collaboration skills. Together, we will create a community-based temporary mural on mobile walls that will require the teens to collaborate with youth in summer programming throughout the community process, including hosting community meetings with the youth and hosting paint days where the youth assist in painting the mural.
The final mural will be displayed at SACA's annual Barrio Block Party on August 9th! After the Block Party we will have potential to display the temporary mural in our space or elsewhere for a limited amount of time. This will be a rotating mural that will be painted again the following summer through the same program.
REQUIREMENTS:
DATES: Starts 1 July 2024 & continues throughout July 2024; specific dates & times will be subject to change based on the selected crew's general availability -- will most likely be 10-15hrs per week in July.
LOCATION: San Anto Cultural Arts, 2120 El Paso St., San Antonio, TX 78207
SELECTION: Preference is given to westside teens; SACA directly serves the west side of San Antonio. However, the application is open to all San Antonio teens. Selection will be made based on applicants' availability and interest in learning more about and experiencing community-based arts.
