Are you creative and artistic, and wish to share your skills and passion with others? We are looking for a talented artist and people-person to teach high-quality visual arts classes to school-aged youth.

Classes will be held one day per week and begin immediately after school, running until 5:00 or 5:30pm.

The overall class length will be 6, 8, or 10 weeks depending on the term. Class supplies are to be provided by the instructor. There may be additional teaching opportunities in Rec & Ed’s early childhood program and/or in summer camps, if desired. To view all of Rec & Ed’s current class and camp offerings, please visit
