About Artreach India’s Teaching Fellowship Programme :
Through a fixed grant Artreach India supports an artist to work with a group of children for eight months with an engaging and meaningful program of planned workshops and fieldtrips culminating in an exhibition and publication at the end of the period.

The partner NGO is Salaam Baalak Trust and the children will be selected from within their care homes in NCR. Working with a group of about 20 children between the ages 14 to 18, the artist will introduce them to a variety of mediums and techniques, and to a selection of artists and styles through AV presentations and field trips.

Beyond the teaching of technical skills and insight into art history/aesthetics the artist will encourage the children to use art as a tool for the critical exploration of the world, will seek to cultivate their imaginative, creative and reflective skills, and encourage each of them to find an individual expressive voice.

The artist should come rich with artistic skills and ideas, and be interested in developing students’ ideas through workshops that are sensitive to their questions. S/he should focus on cognitive work, engaging students in concepts and ideas.

S/he should understand that learning in the arts is a social process, enriched by collaboration and group discussion.

An intensive workshop and exhibition at the Kiran Nadar Museum is planned at the end of the period with an accompanying catalogue. The focus though should remain on the process of artistic exploration and learning and not the product i.e. the exhibition.

The exhibition is to be seen as part of the process of exploration of the artistic endeavor and one of the many elements of artistic practice.

Through our previous Teaching Fellowships, the fellows were advised by a panel of artist-educators, a counselor and curator. We worked closely with them and our partner NGOs towards developing curriculum, monitoring the program to understand its impact on the children as well as create a template of best practice methods for future residencies.
