Teen Lounge: Call for Proposals
Teen Lounge at Fleisher Art Memorial is now accepting workshop proposals for our Winter and Spring 2027 term, which runs from January through May. Proposals are due by Sunday, November 1 at 11:59 PM.
Teen Lounge is a free, drop-in after-school arts program for young people ages 13 to 19. The program offers teens a chance to connect, create, and collaborate with professional Philadelphia-based artists in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Past workshops have included sewing plush monsters, rug tufting, Nerikomi ceramics, character design, figure drawing, and more. We welcome diverse artistic approaches, and experimental proposals are strongly encouraged. Workshops meet once a week for four weeks on either Tuesdays or Wednesdays, from 4-6pm. Teaching artists are compensated $595 for the participating in an orientation and leading four workshops.
The proposal fair will take place on Thursday, November 19 from 5-6pm at Fleisher Art Memorial. All participants will receive a $25 gift card for your time.
At the Proposal Fair, you’ll meet Teen Lounge students, share your workshop idea, and answer questions about your proposal. Teens will vote to help select which proposals are offered as future workshops.
Selected artists will be notified by Friday, November 6.
