As artists, we teach to inspire communities, schools and students. The Teaching Artist Symposium offers the space and time to reflect, share, and support our fellow teaching artists so that we can inspire each other, too. By engaging in a day-long professional development opportunity focused on the needs of teaching artists and arts educators, the Symposium will support a strong and inclusive community among teaching artists working throughout the greater Pittsburgh region.
