About
Professional Development Programs are programs that endeavor to develop participants' professional repertoire (skills, ability, confidence, resilience, network, etc) through teaching specific skills or sharing knowledge.
Programs
CATS+
CATS+ (Collaborative Art + Technology Situation) is a paid residency program for artists interested in expanding their work in digital and new media. CATS+ is a community-centered program that provides access to space, technology, mentorship, training, and exhibition opportunities for the creation of new projects. The program promotes troubleshooting, peer relationship-building, and critical thinking around emerging and ubiquitous technologies. CATS+ hosts collaborations, artist-led workshops, public showcases, and a wiki to remove the mystery from tech by foregrounding process and experimentation.
Fellowship
MoHA's Fellowship program is a paid professional development opportunity for students to gain work experience in their expressed interest in the categories: grant writing, event production, arts administration, or digital arts at a non-profit arts organization.
Fiscal Sponsorship
The Museum of Human Achievement acts as Fiscal Sponsor for many artists and informal organizations to apply for and manage grant funding as well as donations. Fiscal sponsorship is a legal structure and tax mechanism to umbrella individuals and informal groups, events, or programs under the non-profit status of a 501c3 organization. This can help with eligibility for certain grants as well as reduce tax liability when receiving grant funds.
Games Y'all
Games Y’all is a monthly meetup that celebrates, amplifies, and supports the unique and underrepresented within indie games and beyond.
Grant Writing Hangouts
Grant Writing Hangouts are facilitated co-working time where MoHA staff, artists, community organizers, and grant writers share space, eat snacks, and work together on applications for grant funding.
Potluck
Potluck is an intentional, uninterrupted place for people to socialize and connect.
