Resplandor International Richard Ruiz Scholar/Artist in Residence Announcement
March 30, 2019 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Resplandor International in collaboration with Worlds of Words and the University of Arizona College of Education with corporate sponsor Learning A-Z will announce the accomplished scholar or artist from the world of children’s literature, visual arts, literacy or international education for a 2019 residency in Guanajuato, México.
The selected scholar or artist will provide an international presence for the collaborating institutions in the greater community of Guanajuato. The goal of the residency is to expand intercultural understandings and global perspectives through the use of high quality, culturally authentic international literature. Additionally, the submitted proposal might focus on promoting reading engagement, language development, critical literacy or written expression through global literature. Proposed activities of the scholar/artist should consider providing classes, presentations, performances, lectures, seminars, and exhibitions in the community to promote their proposal. An artist in residence for example could promote artistic expression by teaching the craft of book illustration and design. The scholar in residence will work in collaboration with Dr. Todd Fletcher, the director of the Verano en México summer study abroad program and Resplandor International in Guanajuato.
Light refreshments. Event Details May Change.
