Call to Instructors for Morristown Free University

River Arts of Morrisville and Morristown Centennial Library are gearing up for special free programming in the month of April called Morristown Free University. With the help of a generous grant from the Vermont Community Fund these two established community organizations will be offering programs of all genres.  Patterned after Bethel University in Bethel, Vermont, Morristown Free University will be open to everyone in the Morristown community and surrounding towns. Over 20 workshops will be offered free of charge to all who sign up for a class. The types of classes offered are limited only by the imagination of the public.

We are reaching out to instructors now and asking for others to reach out to us! Some of the possible classes already forming include poetry, sewing with felt, a civics class, puppet making, and a therapeutic dance workshop. We are thrilled with the variety of talents and encourage others to reach out to us as we build on our April offerings.

These one-off classes will typically be 2 or 3 hour workshops, and students are welcome to sign up for as many as they like. Classes will be held at a variety of spaces around town including the River Arts location at 74 Pleasant Street and Morristown Centennial Library at 7 Richmond Street.

There is no age requirement for instructors, and youth are welcome to reach out to create a class around a particular skill set that they can share with their community.

Interested instructors can reach out via email to morristownu@gmail.com with their name and a brief description of a proposed class.  We will be collecting outreach until February 15th and classes will be published for registration in March.
