Survey for Black Teaching Artists Seeks to Advance the Field

Last month, we shared news that the Black Teaching Artist Lab (BTAL) and Creative Generation (CG) organizations had partnered to conduct original research on the needs and experiences of Black teaching artists in the U.S. That research is happening right now, and you may be able to help. BTAL is asking any Black-identifying teaching artists working in the U.S. (citizenship not required), from all artistic backgrounds and in all settings and educational environments (schools, after-schools and community organizations, jails, prisons, and/or social services agencies), to complete a ten-minute survey about their experiences.

Per BTAL, “This data will help us to demonstrate the impact of Black teaching artists’ work and to tell the stories of their work in different communities.” All responses will remain anonymous. Access the survey via this Google form.
