Teen-Artist Project
The Moderns Teen-Artist Project pairs area high school students with artists as teachers. The program aims to expand each student’s art practice, introducing new concepts, approaches, artists, and media. Each visiting artist leads students through an investigation of modern and contemporary art in the galleries and related projects in the Museum studio. Participants also spend an afternoon visiting museums and galleries throughout the DFW Metroplex, further expanding their knowledge of art as found in their own community. The Modern is proud to announce that the Teen-Artist Project is now comprised of two semesters, with the fall semester running from August through December and the spring semester from January through May; class sessions meet at the Modern from 2 to 5 pm most Sundays each semester. The program is free, and all sophomores, juniors, and seniors who want to learn more about visual art are invited to apply. Fifteen dedicated, hardworking, and creative students will be accepted to participate in the program each semester based on their applications and accompanying materials. Students are required to make a firm commitment to the program and to attend class regularly. Students must also be available several weekends in May during the annual Teen-Artist Project exhibition, which is juried by two area artists and combines the work of students from both the fall and spring semesters. Applications for the spring 2011 semester are due Friday, November 12.
