About the Organization
Venice Arts' mission is to ignite youths’ imagination, mentor their creativity, and expand their sense of possibility through high quality, accessible media–based arts education programs. Venice Arts also serves as a catalyst for people of all ages, living in low-income or underrepresented communities, to create and share personal and community stories through photography, film, and multi-media.
About the Opportunity
Venice Arts is seeking to develop a pool of qualified professional, photographers to work on an Independent Contract basis. Selected faculty will be trained by Venice Arts and given teaching assignments, on an as-needed basis, in our programs for youth in Venice and at our Art Partners locations in Los Angeles, as well as in our Documentary Programs in Los Angeles and further afield.
Qualifications:
Must be a photographer with experience teaching youth; a strong commitment to, and experience in, documentary photography, photojournalism, or street photography is strongly preferred. Familiarity with participant photography and visual storytelling is a plus. Must be expert in digital media, including image management. Must be available during standard after–school hours and/or on weekends and interested in a long-term affiliation with Venice Arts.
