Artist Facilitators

September 1, 2021 10:00 AM

December 31, 2021 5:00 PM

Nameless Sound is looking for creative improvisational and/or experimental musicians to work as Artist-Facilitators in its youth-centered, collaborative, improvisation-based workshop program. Facilitators work from their own creative practices and respond to the needs of participating youth within the guidelines of Nameless Sound’s unique pedagogical framework. This is contract work that could include between 1-5 sessions per week.

Workshops are in a wide range of sites including after-school programs for children who have experienced homelessness and domestic abuse, as well as for children from refugee families.

The great majority of our workshop participants are BIPOC. Having facilitators who reflect the diverse cultural identities of our participants is important to the program.

If you are interested or have any questions, please contact David Dove at david.dove@namelesssound.org and Jason Jackson at jason@namelesssound.org.

After you check in, shuttles will be available to take you to the Hill from 2pm-2:30pm. You are also welcome to walk to the Hill from this point, which is approximately two miles away. If walking, please allow time to get to the site by 3pm.
