Faculty Interest 2026

Thank you for your interest in teaching with The Highlights Foundation! We are currently no longer looking for faculty for programs in 2025.


If you have ideas for new courses or want to be part of existing courses (online or on campus) in 2026, we'd love to hear from you!


Please note that course planning happens 6-12 months ahead of time and that we will only reach out to you if there is interest in working together. If you have questions, please contact Alex Villasante: alex.villasante@highlightsfoundation.org

About Teaching at Highlights

You can find our current offerings on our website here. We strongly encourage all of our faculty to read The Anti-Racist Workshop by Felicia Rose Chavez and Craft in the Real World by Matthew Salesess as these books help represent the teaching ethos at the Highlights Foundation.

Let us know a little about yourself, including what books you've published, other teaching or speaking experience and any organizations you're associated with.

We seek a diverse cohort of faculty in our workshops. To your comfort level, please tell us more about yourself, including ways that you identify and connect with the content material that you wish to teach.
