NEW! Sustaining Yourself as a Working Artist: A Discussion at the Center
for Cultural Innovation
Recent research indicates that contemporary artists, who envision and
build their practice(s) as individual or small business persons, achieve
success differently than in the past and differently than most other
entrepreneurs. Generally speaking, artists balance greater crossover
investments from multiple jobs, requiring more time management, with
updated outlooks about available resources and limited access to new
technologies.
In the new marketplace, artists are increasingly finding newer ways to
sustain themselves. Join us for an insightful evening with three Los
Angeles based artist-entrepreneurs who use their skills and creativity
to generate multiple income streams in order to achieve healthy
productivity.
Joe Smoke from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs
will moderate a discussion with Cindy Bennett (visual artist), Lisa
Lynne (music), and Jodi Nelson (film and theater).
Date: Thursday, November 8, 2007
Time: 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Pocha Nostra seeking videographer
Dear Pocha Nostra colleagues:
We are currently seeking the help of a filmmaker or video artist
interested in working with us in an upcoming performance project. In early
November 07, La Pocha will be premiering ³The New Barbarian Collection Fall
2007: Designer primitives on the runaway runway² at Arnolfini (Bristol, UK).
The performance is ³an X-treme fashion show² about fear/desire of the Other.
As part of this project we are compiling a bank of recorded TV commercials
from different countries that emphasize ethnicity, sexuality, fashion,
religion and/or violence. The idea is for a video artist to record directly
from television a bunch of interesting commercials and then to eliminate the
actual product from the commercial by either editing it out, or replacing it
with some other image. These enigmatic or poetic commercials will be sampled
live during the performance. We have a budget to pay for this and can
explain in more detail the nature of the material via email.
4.) We are also looking for a bilingual writer/theorist interested in
translating a text by Gómez-Peña, from Spanish to English for one of his
upcoming books. We have a performance text in Spanish about the difference
between border art and ³global art² that has never been published in
English. It's about 10 pages long double-spaced. The goal is to have the
translation finished by late 2007 or early 2008. It will appear in one of
Gómez-Peña's upcoming books in late 2008. The translator will have full
credit in the book.
If you are interested in learning more about these collaborations, please
write to Emma Tramposch at pocha@pochanostra.com with ³TV COMMERCIAL
PROJECT² or ³PERFORMANCE TEXT TRANSLATOR² in the subject heading. Please
describe a little about how your experience makes you a good person for the
collaboration.

Fellowship for High School Teachers
From The Surdna Foundation
The Surdna Foundation Fellowships to High School Arts Teachers
The Surdna Foundation is pleased to announce the eighth round of the
Surdna Arts Teachers Fellowship Program, a national initiative to
support the artistic revitalization of outstanding arts teachers in
specialized, public arts high schools. We are asking you to help
disseminate information about the program to eligible arts teachers,
schools and leaders in the fields of arts and education in your region.
Surdna's goal is to help arts teachers in public arts high schools
increase their effectiveness as they guide and train young people for
careers or advanced study in the visual, performing, and literary
arts. The Foundation believes that if teachers can immerse
themselves in their own creative work and interact with professional
artists/colleagues, they will bring new ideas and practices into the
classroom.
The Surdna Arts Teachers Fellowship Program will enable selected
teachers to create art with professionals in their fields, stay
current with new practices and resources, and create new bodies of
work. Twenty awards of up to $5,000 each will be made. A
complementary grant of $1,500 will be awarded to the Fellow’s school
to support post-fellowship activities.
Letters of Intent to apply are due by November 16, 2007. For more
information and application materials, please go to:
www.surdna.org/artsteachersfellowship
Also, this fall Surdna will be hosting a series of online
informational chat sessions where interested artists/educators can
ask questions. Dates and times are: October 3rd, 3-5 pm; November
2nd, 10 am-12 pm; November 9th, 12 pm-2 pm. To join the October
chat, log onto: http://surdnafellowship.campfirenow.com/b08b5.
For November dates, please go to the Surdna website noted above for
log-in information.
About the Surdna Foundation
The Surdna Foundation, a national family foundation established in
1917, helps support organizations in five program areas: Environment,
Community Revitalization, Effective Citizenry, the Non-Profit Sector,
and Arts. Various Arts initiatives confirm the value of teens making
art with accomplished artists. Additional information can be found
on the Foundation’s website at: www.surdna.org.
We thank you for helping us support this important initiative.

Ryman Arts provides college level foundation drawing and painting
classes free of charge for talented High School students. Classes take
place on Saturdays at the USC Roski School of Fine Arts on the USC

(20-40 minute) outreach presentations for each art class. In addition,
we will work with the art teachers at each school to have a series of
three in-school drawing workshops for the most motivated art students.
Once students from a Target School have been accepted, we want to give
them extra support. The Outreach Coordinator should become personally
familiar with each student, calling him or her at home regularly, and
doing plenty of follow up in the case of both positive (college
interest, scholarship application) and negative (absences, unfinished
homework) events.
Responsibilities: The Outreach Coordinator would be work with the
Education Specialist to recruit, support and track students from Target
schools as part of our Drawn to Art program. The Outreach Coordinator
would spend 5-10 hours each week on the following:
* Calling and emailing students, their art teachers, their Ryman
instructors and their parents.
* Organizing and booking outreach presentations and drawing
workshops at Target schools.
* Tracking the students' attendance, participation in college and
career day events, and homework
* Working with the Education Specialist to develop and implement
outreach programming and plans.
Qualifications: An ideal candidate should:
* Have a Bachelor's degree
* Have excellent interpersonal skills, and persistence in
communication
* Be available to make presentations on school days, visit
Saturday classes, work from the office during mutually agreed upon
regular hours
* Write a business letter (via email and on paper)
* Plan workshops and events in partnership with the Education
Specialist
* Coordinate and attend in-class high school workshops
* Speaking Spanish, being a Ryman Arts alumnus and/or being an
artist is a plus
This position is available now. This position is grant funded through
June 2008, and may be renewed. The position pays $12-15/hour plus
parking and mileage reimbursement.
