The Center for Craft Teaching Artist Cohort awards unrestricted grants of $10,000 to 30 mid-career craft artists who teach. A six-month cohort experience supports their development as artists and educators, expands their professional networks, and enhances their ability to create an enriching impact on the communities they engage. The program provides opportunities and resources that help sustain a generative practice, supports craft artists in creating an enriching impact on the communities they engage through teaching, and develops and strengthens networks of teaching artists through peer-to-peer learning and connection. Recipients participate in virtual workshops and convenings from June 2025 through November 2025, with access to mentorship and professional development programming designed specifically for teaching artists working in craft.
