Along with buying school supplies, LINC Philadelphia is preparing new programs for the fall.  Underway are plans for new teaching artists workshops and a resource guide to finding health care options for individual artists.  Watch this site for more information in early September.

Upcoming Teaching Artist Workshop

A Sense of Place: Designing and Presenting a Printmaking Curriculum

Many visual arts projects can begin by investigating the idea of place and shelter. This workshop will share strategies for developing curriculum that includes creative thinking exercises, generating word banks and visual patterns, developing theme-based imagery and culminating in collaborative carved block printing.

About Us

LINC

Leveraging Investments in Creativity (LINC) is a national initiative to improve conditions for artists so they can better contribute to community life. With funding from the Ford Foundation, LINC is currently in ten cities across the country creating a network of information and support for artists.

Artist LINC Philadelphia

LINC Philadelphia began in 2005 through extensive conversations with hundreds of artists to determine their most pressing needs, and with community partners who could help LINC Philadelphia meet these needs. In September 2006, LINC Philadelphia kicked off a two-year strategy to help artists connect with information and each other.

LINC Philadelphia is co-managed by the Stockton Rush Bartol Foundation and Pew Fellowships in the Arts which are donating their time and resources to the project.
