Arts on the Horizon, a nonprofit, professional theatre company based in Alexandria, VA whose programming is specifically designed for an audience of children ages 0-6, is currently seeking stage managers and designers for the upcoming season.
Arts on the Horizon’s productions are nonverbal, interactive, and incorporate physical theatre, object manipulation, and dance. Performances are 20-30 minutes in length and primarily take place during the morning hours. Music is an integral component.

Teaching Artists
Arts on the Horizon is seeking teaching artists for our afterschool enrichment offerings for the 2023-24 school year, including two opportunities that begin in October 2023.
Afterschool enrichment classes for children in grades K-1 and grades 2-4 (Starting rate: $60 per class)
We currently work with several partners to ensure equitable access to out of school time learning opportunities through our afterschool partnership programs with Alexandria City Public Schools and DC Public Schools. Programs typically run any one day a week on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. Hours are usually 3:15pm-4:15pm, 4:00pm-5:00pm, or 4:15pm-5:15pm, depending on the site and the program. Each class is 1 hour long and offered for a session lasting 6 to 9 weeks, consecutively. Rate of pay for teachers is typically $60-$75 per one-hour class session.
Teaching artists will write their own plans based on a provided framework and with guidance from the Director of Education.
To apply, please submit the following to education@artsonthehorizon.org:
A resume and a brief statement (a couple of sentences) about your interest in arts education and why you are interested in teaching with Arts on the Horizon. While we ask that resumes be submitted in written form, we invite applicants to submit their statement via audio recording, video recording, or written form – whatever format best supports your self-expression. No cover letters are necessary.
