Student Jobs

Not Remote

-Experience working with elementary or middle school aged children and understand age-appropriate activities and behaviors.
-Exceptional teamwork skills, patience, and adaptability: our team is a community that works together to make decisions and keep everyone safe, happy and healthy.
-Self motivated: as a small team everyone is expected to stay organized and motivated so that optimal service can be given to the students and the teachers.
-Experience with, and an affinity for, visual arts desired but not necessary. Visual arts experience does not need to be at university-level. Individuals who took art classes in high school, who enjoy making arts and crafts on their own, would be great fits.
-First aid training preferred; Art Lit Lab will provide training if needed.

-Join our Youth Summer Arts Camp as an Administrative Assistant Intern! This role provides administrative and camper support for 10 weeks of full-time Visual Arts camp programming, plus an additional week of training prior to the start of Camp.
-The Administrative Assistant is expected to supervise camper check-in, check-out and transitions; track student attendance and registration; update and print out Camp syllabi, rosters and other forms; provide one-on-one support for Campers who need breaks; photograph camps and track photo permissions.
-The Administrative Assistant will be responsible for running the daily half hour lunch break between camp sessions during which students eat and socialize.
-Campers range in age from 7-16, with the majority of campers being between ages 7-14. Interns must be comfortable working with this range of student ages.
-Interns must be open to working with students who are neurodivergent and have a range of abilities and life experiences.
-Interns must be present for all agreed-upon dates and hours. Punctuality and reliability are critical.
-Interns must be comfortable working with a range of personalities, as we hire 20 Teaching Artists to lead our diverse summer camp offerings.
-Interns must be comfortable taking initiative, problem-solving, and making decisions in short order. ALL's Summer Campers are a dynamic group of young people with a range of interests and needs. The bulk of an Intern's role goes to supporting the social-emotional and physical wellness of campers, with supporting their artistic growth being an important but lesser priority.
-Interns will support Teaching Artists with classroom management and materials management.
-Interns will have some daily cleaning and camp organization tasks
-Interns will report directly to the Youth Education Director and Co-Director of Education.
-ALL Youth Summer Arts Camp is meant to be a time of growth and discovery for every program participant, interns included. We intend to support our Interns by customizing this internship to your strengths, interests, and goals - while still ensuring that all daily requirements are completed. The opportunity to teach some lessons is available for interns for whom that is an interest. Previous interns have progressed to the role of Teaching Artist and now lead their own week-long camps.

-Walking, standing, working with hands
-Occasionally supervising breaks and other activities outdoors
-Some moderate lifting of art materials, tables and chairs
