Per expansion of the program, Project Basho is seeking individuals who have a strong passion for teaching photography at various levels. We are interested in working with creative and dedicated individuals who can not only teach technical matters in a concise way but also who can share their passion and commitment to the medium with their students.

Requirements:

• Strong technical understanding of use of cameras (various formats), shooting, and darkroom practices (b/w, color and/or historical processes)
• Strong appreciation of formal issues of photography
• Moderate knowledge of history of photography
• Strong involvement in photography
• Strong communication and inter-personal skills
• Strong organizational skills

A degree in photography is certainly preferred, but not required. Also, teaching experience is preferred, but not a requirement. There will be a series of training sessions which one must complete.

These are part-time positions and are not immediately open. The length of classes ranges from one or two weekends to 12 weeks.

If you are interested in the positions, please send a resume and other supporting materials in the following specific format:

1. One page resume in Word format as an attachment
2. One page essay describing your relationship to photography in Word format as an attachment
3. 20 slides of your personal work - contact for a mailing address (absolutely no attachments please)
