(box 18; 0.5 linear ft.)

The material in this series primarily reflects Sheets's teaching activities in an academic setting and his role as an instructor through specialized art workshops.

The series is organized into two subseries:

7.1: Teaching Positions and Seminars, 1932-1982, undated
7.2: Workshops, 1952, 1964-1982, undated

Teaching and workshop files are on reels 5700-5701.
