Local artists can help spark the next generation of creatives by joining the team at Children’s Discovery Museum of San Jose. Applications for the museum’s artist-in-residence program are now open through September 11.  Artists will be inspired to use their imagination and talent to help youngsters draw, paint, sculpt, and create in a 12-week artist-in-residence program in the museum’s LeRoy Neiman Art Studio. The fall residency begins in October and will be followed by a winter, spring, and summer session. Each artist will receive a $1,500 monthly stipend.

Artists will be tasked with creating monthly hands-on art programs for children of all ages that will be facilitated on the weekends. The artists will have the opportunity to display their own artwork and share their style and creative process with Bay Area families and will receive a portfolio of their museum work in photos and video to take with them after their residency is complete.
