The Sun Gallery is hiring! We are looking for 2-3

The Sun Gallery is hiring! We are looking for 2-3 part-time art teachers who love working with children, love art, good drawing skills, art skills, and classroom management experience, and are looking for a part-time opportunity.

Pay is $20-$30 DOE. Days are not stable, the days you will be asked to work will be Mondays-Fridays, and the hours range from 2.5 - 4.5 hours per day (it depends on how many classes sign up for our field trips) These field trips with students are held at the Sun Gallery. You will receive paid training by one of the lead teachers at the gallery. All materials for conducting classes will be provided.

Times you would be working are 8:45am - 2:00pm-ish. No weekends or evenings. You may only teach 1 class on one day and more on another day. It varies. 1 class would be about 2.5 hours.

These are all year-round positions, and you may be considered to also teach other classes as well, including Summer Art Camp from June to August.

We also need teachers for out-in-the-field art classes inside schools all year round (except for summer). These classes may be any time between 9-2 ish, and may be blocks of classes in the same school.

We are flexible but are looking for long-term teachers who would like to stay with us. These are not seasonal positions, and there are unfortunately no benefits (we are a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Since 1975)

There is also a possibility of this being a 1099 position, depending on the right person. If you have to travel out of Hayward to a school, you will be paid for mileage. Prefer local people as traffic can be tough coming into Hayward, and we really need someone who is timely, and can arrive at school 15-20 minutes earlier than your scheduled class (you will be paid for this)

We are looking to hire in the month of September, and we will require a background check (we pay for it), and your references will be checked. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Please, no calls. Emails only. If you have questions, you can ask in the messages here as we do check those often.

Please send your resume to Dorsi Diaz, the Director, at sungallerydirector@gmail.co

Press Release 8/11/2023 Sun Gallery Makerspace's

Press Release 8/11/2023

Sun Gallery Makerspace's Grand Opening, Saturday, August 12th, 1-4 pm

Hayward, CA - A new maker space is coming to Hayward, located downtown in a building behind the Sun Gallery (1015 E Street). The space hosts its all-ages ribbon cutting and opening party Saturday the 12th from 1pm to 4pm, and this will include food trucks, beverages, music, live bands, and of course, a chance to tour and view the new space!

Funded by the Hayward People's Budget and built by a team of dedicated community volunteers from Hayward Techies and Makers Club and the Sun Gallery community, the Sun Gallery Makerspace offers supplies and workspace for creators, artists, and builders.

These include a laser cutter, Cricut machine, 3-D printers, LED electronics, a tool shop, and more in the very near future. The party will take place in an outside area with an event stage, bistro tables, lighting, and colorful murals.

The goal is for the space to become a community gathering space and idea incubator for people of all ages as much as an art and tech workshop.

The Sun Gallery's Art Meets Tech exhibit will also open the same day and people will be able to tour the gallery and view a variety of art projects from Bay Area locals that combine art and technology.

Please join us on Saturday, August 12, for a very special day! (1-4 pm)

The Sun Gallery Makerspace & renovated Courtyard will be revealed along with a special ribbon cutting! 🎀 There will be live demos of our new Makerspace equipment, plus art fun for kids and adults. 🖼🎨🦾

Light snacks 🍫 and beverages will be served, and we will also have a food truck on hand for lunch, and live music 🎶 by local musicians and performers.

The "Art Meets Tech" Artists Reception will be at the same time so we welcome you to come and browse the work, and speak with artists, creators, and makers in the main Gallery, maker space, and courtyard.

This is a formal/informal gathering, so please come as you are! If you'd like to dress in Steampunk, that would be amazing, and you can take a pic with #steampunkstan , our resident Octopus named Stan 🐙, painted by our fearless leader and Board President Carla Dozier!

There are no rules except to have fun, and have some extra fun, so please bring your whole family. We will also have fun arts and crafts for the children. 🥳🎊🎉

👏👏👏We want to make a 📣HUGE SHOUTOUT to the City of Hayward and Sector 6 community that made this project possible! The community voted for us, and made it possible for us to receive the People's Budget Grant Award to build this Makerspace and renovate our tired courtyard.

⛱️We have awesome new shade, new seating, and tables along with a few other surprises along the way, especially in the new Makerspace! The Hayward Makers & Techies have rocked this space and definitely breathed some new life into our now hybrid art studio/makerspace. We have something for everyone!

Don't miss this event, it's for you HAYWARD!

Sincerely and always yours,
the Staff and Board of Directors at the Sun Gallery

This venue is near and dear to my heart. My high school art teacher, Ken Cook, was active at the Sun Gallery, and my Mom had a book signing for her book Hand in Paw at Books on B (when it was B Street Books.) Life is a circle."

Climate Chat:

We would like to invite you this Saturday, March 25, between 2-3, to an informal chat about climate change over coffee.

Guests will be Artist and Activist Jennifer Koney and Artist and Activist Dorsi Diaz (Sun Gallery Director and Curator)

Questions will be welcome from the audience. This is meant to be an informal and informative discussion about the last 10 years, where we've been and where we are headed. No questions are dumb questions!!

We are all now facing record-breaking symptoms of climate change, and we want your ideas and thoughts, and we hope to inspire some of you into even small changes and actions. All of it matters! We welcome you into our community of artists, writers, authors, makers, businesses, community friends, and fellow climate activists.

And of course, we will have some fresh brewed coffee for you, so grab a friend and head on over! Our 10th Annual Climate Change Exhbit: RE-Imagined is also up, with some extremely profound artifacts in it from the Paradise Fire. The fire that tore through the town of Paradise in 2018 was the most expensive natural disaster in US history. In addition, we have wonderful works of art that you will enjoy seeing!

We are working on a major upgrade and project, whi

We are working on a major upgrade and project, which started with our studio and courtyard. We plan on having a dual Makers Space/Art Space along with a renovated courtyard (new asphalt is done!) along with a cafe bistro style space where you can watch comedy improv, music groups, dancers or maybe just relax and bird watch, and enjoy nature in our little slice of heaven outdoors! (our new stage buildout is also underway, btw)

This Tuesday is #givingtuesday2022 and we are being bold with our dreams, we are launching our first initiative, which will be our new program: "RE-Imagined", a series of workshops over a year that will include things like learning how to use AI (artificial intelligence) for and in your art, learning how to use laser and 3D printers, AND going home with projects! PLUS a Music Fest and Art Fest in our courtyard and much much more! The best thing ever is that these workshops and special classes will be FREE to you and all material costs will be covered!!

We are asking for your help to launch this new program. The Hayward Peoples Budget Award that we won for Section 6 is funding our buildout and our equipment, but we will need funding for program development and also to buy materials, hire qualified teachers, and admin. time to teach these important classes and workshops.

We are super excited to launch this program and bring all of you in to experience the magic of collaboration, team-building, and creating in the 21st Century!

These classes will be the foundation of our new educational and learning programs at the Sun Gallery and Hayward Makers Space. Through this initiative, we will gather data on what programs/classes and workshops our community wants and needs, and how we can best serve our community in the future.

The Sun Gallery and Hayward Makers/Creators Space: “Building Community Through Creativity”

CALL FOR ART: "Anything Can Be Canvas" Exhibit

🎨For our next exhibit, a discussion ensued to forge a theme. The Sun Gallery Curator, Nina Starr, wanted a Tattoo Theme. The Board members, along with the Director, Dorsi Diaz, considered this and felt it should be broader.

🎨 A few suggestions were made......
"Well, Yes, of course.....
Tattoo Art, photos and drawings, and in person.
What about Skateboard Art? What about Graffiti?
Could it be Photographs? What about a painted object? Some Sculpture? Could it be Textiles? What about Metalwork? A simple Drawing?
