CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
Fellows of the Academy for Teachers are passionate, creative, and devoted educators. Many of them are also extraordinarily talented in ways that don’t always show up in the classroom.
We are now accepting applications for the 2026 Fellows Talent Show—an evening dedicated to celebrating the wide range of creativity within our community. Music, comedy, storytelling, dance, spoken word, magic, and other performance-based talents are all welcome.
At least one performer in each act must be an Academy Fellow. Solo performers and groups are encouraged to apply. Former Music Fest participants are welcome to apply again. We’ll provide the stage and basic tech support; you bring the talent.
Applications close January 18, 2026.
