For Students
Studio Arts Workshop Support (SAWS)
The Studio Arts Workshop Support (SAWS) initiative was established in May 2015 by the Studio Committee at Queen's University Faculty of Education. SAWS is currently overseen by the Arts Infusion Committee.

For Instructors
Teaching Artist Experience
The Arts Infusion Committee supports instructors in the Faculty of Education who want to bring Teaching Artists into their classrooms for arts-integrated learning opportunities. We will help connect you with a Teaching Artist from our roster and provide funding to pay for the artist's facilitation fees and some materials. Funding is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
To learn more about Teaching Artists, arts integration, and our Teaching Artist roster, please visit the Teaching Artists section of our website.
If you are interested in working with a Teaching Artist, please contact the committee at educarts@queensu.ca and provide the following information:

Your name and contact information

Course title(s) and code(s) for the course(s) in which you hope to integrate a Teaching Artist learning experience.
Please include "Teaching Artist Experience" in the subject line.
