Do you know some people who would be interested in making some money while helping art students? The pay is $7/hr for clothed models and $10/hr for unclothed models. Both preferences will be fine and will help the department, but for drawing class, they really need nude models as the class has an anatomy component. Contact: Brent A. Holland, Assistant Professor, Department of Art and Design, (515) 294.4768 or Email: bh1@iastate.edu.
