What is the irid Teaching Fellowship?

irid's Teaching Fellowship takes bright, curious minds of Toronto and gives them a platform to incubate their creative work through the process of developing and teaching a course. Our application cycle for the Fall is now closed. Check back later this year for updates on becoming a Fellow in a future cohort.

Where can I get more of a sense about what each course will feel like?

On August 21st, irid will be hosting a semester preview party, an open-house-style event where our Fellows will run interactive experiences to showcase the themes of their courses. Grab a ticket here!

When does course enrolment open?

Enrolment will open on August 15th.

When do classes begin / how long will they run for?

Classes are slated to begin in late September, running through late fall/early winter. We envision courses to run weekly for anywhere between 3 and 12 weeks, depending on course content.

How much will courses cost? How big will they be? Where will they be held?

Course fees are set by each instructor based on the cost of running the course (space, equipment) and will be included in the full course descriptions when enrolment opens.

Class size and location are similarly flexible and curated based on course and teacher preferences. We are in conversation with various venues around the city, including classic university halls and historic meeting places, and will match Fellows with a room that works best for their location and anticipated class size.
