Suggested Reading: Making Change by Eric Booth
06-21-2023
It’s been said that our very own Eric Booth wrote the book on teaching artistry. Well, now he literally has: Making Change: Teaching Artists and Their Role in Shaping a Better World is an accessible, practical guide to teaching artistry, offering an easy on-ramp to newcomers and lots of good advocacy tools to old hands. The book can be ordered from Barnes & Noble or Amazon—100% of the proceeds go to the International Teaching Artist Collaborative. We also recommend checking out ITAC’s website, which offers many more resources for teaching artists. The book’s website introduces the 5,000 New Advocates campaign; this provides books free to colleagues around the world who will use them to cultivate new supporters for the field.
