Want to TEACH IN OUR STUDIO?

Dedicated to supporting visual artists and Durham’s creative community, Liberty’s Studio program is a cohort of 10-15 practicing artists who rent individual studio spaces in a warehouse setting.

Liberty Arts is actively looking to collaborate with local, skilled, active artists to become guest teachers with project-focused, well-defined class proposals in:

  • Glassblowing techniques for students of all experience levels

  • Welding (six MIG stations available), grinding, and plasma cutting

  • Casting in the foundry (aluminum, bronze) and regional iron pouring

If you are looking for an inspiring place to create and share ideas you've come to the right place! Our studio aims to provide a team-oriented environment for artists to flourish, collaborate, and grow while supporting Liberty’s mission; “To create experiences that enhance artistic growth and community building through creative practice and collaboration.”

To get to know each other better, our plan is for first-time guest instructors to conduct a “project-based”(eg a garden bench, a holiday decoration, etc) class where students learn the basic craft skills and finish the class with a defined object. From there, the instructor may wish to teach more intensive, skill-building classes.
