Community MusicWorks currently offers an opportunity for young musicians to learn about and participate in the CMW model:
The Alumni Fellowship is an opportunity for CMW alums to return to the organization in a professional capacity. Through participation in this two-year program, alums gain experience and skills in multiple aspects of teaching artistry, youth development, creative practice, and community engagement that we hope will lead to future career opportunities. The Fellowship is centered around three pillars: teaching, creative practice, and learning modules focused on aspects of organizational practice. The program is designed to be flexible to the interests and input of each fellow, and many aspects of the experience are co-created with the fellows and CMW staff.
We will be accepting applications for the next cohort of alumni fellows in February 2024.
The Teaching Artist Fellowship (begun in 2006) is currently paused while we grow the Alumni Fellowship. We expect to redesign and relaunch the Teaching Artist Fellowship in the future.
