Children’s Artist/Illustrator

Deadline to apply is August 10, 2018.

The Calgary Public Library invites applications for the paid position of Artist in Residence: Children’s Artist/Illustrator at New Central Library (NCL) in downtown Calgary for the Fall of 2018.

This residency recognizes the contribution of children’s artists to literature and to Calgary’s culture and seeks to introduce Library patrons, especially children and educators, to artists and art forms they may not otherwise experience while providing opportunities to meet artists, observe the artistic process and participate in artmaking. The residency includes a commission for the annual Library Goes to Kindergarten Library Card illustration.
