Artist & Writer in Residence

Artist & Writer in Residence (A&WiR) is the Art Academy of Cincinnati’s free outreach program for K-12 classrooms in the Greater Cincinnati region. Students in the A&WiR program are challenged to creatively problem solve, collaborate with their peers, and invest in their social and emotional learning through the arts.

Through sustained engagement with local and regional Middle and High Schools, our Teaching Artist & Writers staff enhances in-school studies in art, writing, foreign language, and social studies classes. Each educator that joins the A&WiR program is provided the materials, curricular support, and partnership to create a transformational experience with a partnering Teaching Artist & Writer from the AAC.
