Instructors Needed for Classes
A good teacher can help students realize their
potential, meet their goals and discover a talent
that they didn't know they have. Fayetteville-
Cumberland Parks & Recreation is looking for
those kinds of instructors to assist in the newly
created Cultural Arts Division. Through the
division's programming, dreams can be
accomplished and futures can be mapped out.
The new Parks & Recreation branch was
established to satisfy the demand for high-level
arts programming.
Programs cover dance; theatre/drama; visual/
media arts instruction; performance arts with the
creation of community theatre, dance or mime
troupes; painting; cultural arts tours; singing;
poetry; a lecture series provided by local authors
and poets; photography; creative writing classes;
the formation of book clubs; pottery; individual
instruction for a variety of instruments or voice;
piano; and the creation of a community band or
chorus.
