Education

Arcosanti is a non-profit, educational institution, as such the
top priority of the project is to run the four week workshop programs, which build and maintain the Arcosanti Arcology Prototype. The Workshop Coordinator’s primary responsibility is to make sure those workshop programs are running, both as productive crews for the Arcosanti Crew Leaders, and as an educational program for the participants.

The Workshop Coordinator deals with participants from the very beginning and even past the end of their workshop experience:

  • The Coordinator answers inquiries and questions form people interested in Arcosanti, accepts the applications and registration from those coming in to join to the project.
  • Creates the schedules for each four week program.
  • Organizes, and/or proctors seminars on the Arcology hypothesis.
  • Keeps track of Workshop performance, while making sure that the Arcosanti Staff is doing their best to attend to the educational needs of the workshop.
  • Helps Workshoppers while they are here.
  • And finally, Officiates the Graduation

But it doesn’t stop there:

The Workshop Coordinator is also the Alumni Liaison, and maintains contact with Workshoppers after they leave Arcosanti, and acts as the Volunteer Coordinator for those who stay on after their four-week workshop.

The Workshop Coordinator is usually the first point of contact for people interested in Arcosanti, be it to attend the Programs, or for educational research, or just curiosity. Typically the Coordinator is available to travel around the local Arizona area to give talks and presentation about Arcosanti, as well as a point person to send educational and promotional materials nation, if not world-wide. Arcosanti also hosts and runs regularly scheduled one week, and Custom Workshop Programs and the Coordinator makes sure that these programs run well.

If you are interested in Arcosanti or the Workshops/Internships please feel free to contact the Workshop Coordinator. She can send you information, and even come out to your location in Arizona, or try to find alumni in your local area to come give a presentation. Also if you are interested in attending or creating a Custom Workshop Program, the Workshop Coordinator is the person to contact.
