ART INSTRUCTORS
We accept teacher proposals on a rolling basis for our Winter (Jan-Mar), Spring (Apr-June), Summer (June-Aug), and Fall (Sep-Dec) semesters. To submit a proposal, send email to info@artscouncilofprinceton.org with all of the following information:

Proposals are kept on file for up to five years so re-submitting is not necessary.

New instructors must submit a resume, references, and examples of work (if it pertains to art work, writing samples, etc)

Submit a materials list with your proposal. We must have a good idea of what the class is, what it is going to cost, and the feasibility of the class BEFORE we promote the offering and list it on our website.

Take the time and consult a calendar when planning your classes. Mark your calendars when your class will not meet to avoid confusion. You can give us your proposal and instructor packet of information electronically by e-mailing Liz Murray: emurray@artscouncilofprinceton.org

Submitting a proposal does not guarantee that the Arts Council will be running the class that semester. All proposals will go through a review process. If your proposal is not going to be on our class schedule for that given semester, we will keep you on our mailing list for future semesters. If you have any questions, please call Liz Murray at (609) 924-8777, ext. 101 or email emurray@artscouncilofprinceton.org to discuss your concerns.

Background checks, which may include a verification of your employment history, Social Security number and a criminal records search, are normally completed before an offer of employment is made but may also take place after employment begins. The ACP will keep confidential all information gathered in background checks and will use the information solely for the purpose of establishing suitability for employment in a particular position.
