Why work with Firefly?

Weekly classes pay $45–$110 per session, depending on length, age group, and medium, plus up to $25 in enrollment bonuses. You'll make at least $75/night for leading a Workshop, and a revenue split for Guest Artist Workshops.

We're also invested in you beyond the classroom. We can help you market yourself to buyers, build a website, and get you featured on our socials. Sound like your kind of gig? Apply below.

Community

Teaching at Firefly means joining a creative community. You'll work alongside other artists, build relationships with students, and help shape what a creative space can look like in Tulsa.

Support

Working at Firefly comes with more than a paycheck. Our team has experience helping artists build real businesses - from setting up an LLC to building a website to pricing your work. We want to support you however we can.

Connection

Teaching here puts you in front of students, fellow artists, and potential customers. Display and sell your work at Firefly, take classes, meet makers, and keep doing what you love.

Weekly Classes
We're building a roster of weekly instructors across all of our disciplines. Most classes run evenings and weekends, with daytime availability needed for our homeschool program. If you already have students who'd follow you here, even better - bring six or more and we'll build a class around you.
