The Creative Teaching Collective
Teach what you love. Create community. Make something beautiful.
Do you have a creative skill, project, or class you'd love to share?
We'd love to hear from you.
The Creative Teaching Collective is an opportunity for artists, makers, educators, and creatives to bring their ideas into the Flower Mound Art & Music studio and create meaningful, hands-on experiences for our community.
Whether you have a one-night workshop, a weekend intensive, or a multi-week class in mind, we're looking for creative people who want to share what they know in a welcoming, inspiring studio environment.
What Can You Teach?
We're open to a variety of creative classes and workshops, including:
Drawing & painting
Watercolor & mixed media
Illustration
Printmaking
Fiber arts & textiles
Jewelry & handmade goods
Creative writing & journaling
Calligraphy & lettering
Photography
Crafting
Creative wellness
Youth & family art experiences
And other creative ideas you're excited to share!
Have an idea that doesn't fit neatly into a category? Submit it anyway. We're always interested in something new.
How It Works
1. Submit Your Class Proposal
Tell us about your class, workshop, or creative experience. We'll review your idea to make sure it's a good fit for our studio and community.
2. We'll Connect With You
If your proposal is a good fit, we'll work with you to determine the class format, schedule, pricing, materials, and studio needs.
3. Teach at the Studio
Once your class is approved and scheduled, you'll bring your class to Flower Mound Art & Music and do what you do best, teach, create, and connect with your students.
4. Bring Your Community
We encourage instructors to share their classes with their own audience and social media community. We'll also provide opportunities for your class to be featured through our studio channels when appropriate.
Choose Your Class Format
We're open to several types of creative experiences:
One-Time WorkshopsA single creative experience lasting 2–4 hours.
Multi-Week ClassesA class that meets weekly for a set number of sessions.
Creative SeriesA connected series of workshops built around a theme, skill, or project.
Special EventsCreative experiences designed for families, groups, celebrations, or special occasions.

Studio Rental
Approved instructors rent the Flower Mound Art & Music studio for their scheduled class or workshop.
Studio Rental: $50/hour
2-hour minimum
The studio rental provides access to our creative classroom space for your approved class or workshop.
Instructors are responsible for:
Planning and teaching their class
Setting their own student pricing
Student registration and payment
Marketing their class
Providing or arranging required materials
Setup and cleanup
Following studio policies
We will add your class to the calendar of events, post on social media, and share on the Blog/Newsletter.
Need Us to Provide Materials?
We can provide materials for your class for an additional per-student materials fee.
The materials fee will be determined during the class approval process based on the supplies needed for your specific project.
This allows us to make sure your students have everything they need without requiring instructors to purchase and transport supplies themselves.
What We Look For
We're looking for instructors who:
Have a creative skill or experience they're excited to share
Can provide a welcoming and positive learning environment
Are comfortable teaching their proposed class
Can clearly communicate class expectations and materials
Respect our studio, students, and community
Are excited to help create a vibrant creative community
Teaching experience is helpful, but we're also interested in people who simply have something wonderful to share.
