Community Site Leaders (CSLs) plan, organize, and facilitate art opportunities throughout Baltimore City at sites such as (but not limited to) schools, neighborhood art centers, and rehabilitation/transitional housing facilities.
CSLs participate at various levels of hourly commitments per semester and are provided space to process and reflect on their experiences outside of MICA, as well as opportunities for continued professional and personal development with the expectation that they will utilize this learning out in the community. CSLs are recruited at the beginning of each semester, are trained for the position, and then facilitate weekly art sessions or various programming at the site where they are placed.
In Spring 2023, CSLs will have an opportunity to work with sites virtually or hybrid, assisting each organization to stay connected and engaged with their participants.
