At the heart of the UAC's Artist in Residence Program is our belief that the artists make an invaluable contribution to the educational process.

The artist can be a catalyst for change, the creative spark that helps a classroom, school, district, or community to realize that the arts can be part of everyone's daily life as well as a valuable element in ones ongoing education.

The Arts Education (AE) Programs Artist Roster is a list of artists representing all disciplines. Artists are available in crafts, creative writing, dance, film/video, folk traditions, mime, music, photography, sculpture, theater, storytelling, visual arts or a combination of these. AE is also honored to present two National Heritage winners, Eva Castellanoz and Mary Holiday Black.

Each artist has his or her own Artist's Page with an artist's statement, contact information, photos, requirements and availability.

*Note: All artists in the AE Artist Roster have received official approval from peer panels, the AE Committee and the Utah Arts Council Board of Directors.
