PASSING ON TENNESSEE TRADITIONS:

TENNESSEE CRAFT ARTISTS RECEIVE $12K IN MENTORING GRANTS THROUGH THE MASTER ARTIST APPRENTICE PROGRAM

The Tennessee Association of Craft Artists (TACA) is pleased to announce the ongoing partnership with the Tennessee Arts Commission (TAC) to provide mentoring grants for Tennessee craft artists through the Master Artist Apprentice Program (MAAP). Now in its third year, MAAP pairs master craft artists with apprentices who demonstrate a desire and commitment to further develop their abilities as specialized craft practitioners. Apprentices will receive approximately 80 – 120 hours of instruction from masters during the concentrated learning period from December 2011 to June 2012. In total, our three selected Master craft artist/apprentice pairs will receive $12,000 in grant funding to subsidize their lessons and work.
