SEEKING CREATIVES FOR A HUGE COLLABORATION
My name is Elijah Thompson, and I am an entrepreneur driven by creativity and innovation. Animation is one of main passions and I have spent much of my time figuring out how to bring imaginative and engaging animated content to the internet in a way that gives value to consumers and especially to creators.
The Digital Age brought a wealth of opportunity to many creative's who were willing to invest the time, patience, and effort. The things that a single person with a dream, the right about of nerve, and computer can do are astounding, but I've often imagined how much more a team of people who share a unique vision can achieve. Sometimes it feel like we lack the money, the skills, or the know how, or even the courage to put ourselves out there and create something of value, but with the right network of minds, we could support each other and use our collective value to create the sort of opportunities that we could never have alone.
Okay, sorry for the long pitch, the point is, I am assembling a core team of uniquely skilled individuals to become the foundation of a collaborative - network who will work in cooperation to create revenue generating content to distribute across online platforms. A company that's based on the internet and built for interaction. An assortment of creative minds and influential connections who work together but independently . A professional social network, essentially. And I want You to share partial ownership of this company with me and the rest of our core team.
So, what'll ya say?
Everything begins with an idea, you know that better than anyone. An idea is like a seed that is planted in a land of uncertainty and nurtured by faith, hope, and hard work. Most fantastic ideas need way more than one person to believe in them for them to manifest. The first order of business is producing an original animated series that I believe will captivate and inspire audiences; and I need your help to bring it to life.
However, you must be willing to accept deferred payment during the first phase of the project.
I know it is a lot to ask, and I cannot guarantee with 100% certainty that my business model will generate the profits we need compensate everyone as much as I want to, but what I can guarantee is that we will create something awesome, and I've yet to see team work and great effort go unrewarded in this business.
Are you interested?
If... I mean, When we manage to pull this off, it will only be the beginning of what we will achieve, only the first brick of an empire that each core team member will share a piece a of.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in please contact my email

NATIONAL SERVICE FOR CITIZEN-ARTISTS.
ArtistYear is the first national AmeriCorps program for artists to dedicate themselves to a year of service to our country.
WHY WE EXIST
4 million disadvantaged youth in our nation do not have access to arts education (National Endowment of Arts). Yet research shows when underserved students are involved in the arts, they reap significant academic, social, and personal benefits. ArtistYear’s mission is to address this Arts Education Gap by ensuring every underserved student in America has arts education through a National Service Arts Corps.
WHAT WE DO
We do so by developing, supporting and placing exceptional ArtistYear AmeriCorps Fellows--recent higher-education arts graduates across artistic disciplines including actors, creative writers, dancers, designers, filmmakers, musicians, photographers, and visual artists --as full-time Teaching Artists at low-income schools. Once placed in a low-income school with a partner teacher, each Fellow provides 1700 hours of arts education, deepening the quality of, and exposure to, arts standards via “Push-In” Classes (integrating arts with other subjects), Arts Clubs (arts programming linked to school-day curriculum) and Arts Interventions (small group sessions for off-track/at risk youth).
This innovative strategy significantly bolsters arts education for our nation’s most vulnerable youth, with all its attendant benefits, while also improving student academic engagement, enhancing school climate and capacity, benefiting the larger community, and underscoring the importance of service for the next generation of Citizen-Artists.
WHAT IS THE 2021 COHORT APPLICATION TIMELINE?

Schools & District: Fellows also act as “capacity builders” for a school’s emerging arts program, supporting existing arts specialists or school leadership with arts partner cultivation, arts field trip preparations, and arts resource procurement.

OUR STORY
Founded and headquartered in Philadelphia, ArtistYear became an independent 501(c)3 in 2016, thanks to a generous gift from the late H. F. “Gerry” Lenfest. It launched a pilot in 2016-2017, with 9 Fellows serving over 1,200 high-need Philadelphia students in partnership with the School District of Philadelphia, higher-education partner's Curtis Institute of Music and Drexel University, and community arts organizations such as The Barnes Foundation.
In Summer 2017, ArtistYear was awarded $1.45 million in AmeriCorps funding over three years, the first-ever national organization dedicated to service through the arts to receive AmeriCorps funding and recognition from the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), the federal agency that oversees AmeriCorps and national volunteering initiatives. ArtistYear expanded operations to three locations—Philadelphia, PA; NYC’s Borough of Queens, in partnership with the NYC Department of Education; and rural Colorado in partnership with Aspen Music Festival & School and the Roaring Fork School District. In 2018-2019, after receiving 30 additional PennSERVE AmeriCorps positions for Philadelphia Fellows along with support from CMA Foundation, New York Community Trust, Neubauer Family Foundation, William Penn Foundation, and others, ArtistYear more than doubled its impact with 57 Fellows serving annually, teaching 15,000 non-duplicated youth twice-weekly, delivering over 96,000 hours of arts education in the three locations.
To date, ArtistYear has trained and placed 137 ArtistYear Fellows to serve as full-time teaching artists in 51 low-income schools, collectively engaging over 35,000 (non-duplicated) students at Title I schools, delivering over 233,000 hours of arts instruction. 11% of the ArtistYear alums have been hired by a school district as a certified arts specialist post their service year. 95% of school leaders reported that their ArtistYear Fellow’s presence and program at the school led to increased student engagement and school attachment, resulting in positive effects on attendance and academic performance.
ArtistYear provides equal employment opportunities to all Employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, ancestry, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, religion, age, disability, gender identity, results of genetic testing, or service in the military. Equal employment opportunity applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leave of absence, compensation, and training.
