Our artists live with disabilities of varying forms but come to our programs because they want a safe place to express themselves through a variety of creative outputs.

The AAS works closely with the Manager, Operations and Artist Services, in addition to other team members, to help implement administrative processes that track and support the advancement of our artists across various program departments.

- Disseminate Review documents to the appropriate Studio Faculty member or department lead for timely completion with individual artists.
- Organize and file all complete AGPR documents in an appropriate and timely manner so they may be easily located for reports.
- When requested, draft Individual Service Plan (ISP) documents using current AGPR data; disseminate ISPs to the appropriate artist, guardian(s), primary service provider, and PDD representative for signature and submission.
- When requested, coordinate and host ISP meetings with artists, guardians, service providers, PDD representatives, and other relevant supports.
- Every fiscal quarter, compile all AGP data into a Performance Management Framework (PMF) document to be submitted to PDD on time.

4. Report any safety concerns to the Safety Officer or the Manager, Operations and Artist Services.

5. Develop connections with artists across our multidisciplinary program departments.

6. Establish and maintain positive and strong relationships with key stakeholders, including artists and guardians, sister arts and disability organizations, funders, and international partners; leverage these relationships for the betterment of the NaAC and its artist community.

7. As requested, compile program data into reports to support fund development initiatives, program development, etc.

8. As needed, support program coverage in cases of staff illness, emergency, etc.
