Dorm Counselor/Arts instructor – Maine Arts Camp

Maine Arts Camp, www.maineartscamp.com, is an overnight camp for children ages 9-16. Our camp is a small, inclusive & creative camp community.  We are located on the campus of Unity College, in Unity, Maine.  Our camp season for staff runs from June 29 – August 2, 2015. We are looking staff interested in living and caring for campers for a month during the summer.  We offer about 55 activities, including a wide variety in the arts (painting, drawing,anime, pottery, hand building, metal jewelry, stained glass, sculpture, sewing and more). Besides the arts, our activities include music, theater, dance, culinary arts, film making, archery, kayaking/canoeing, biking, yoga and much more.

The dorm counselor position is a combination of leading/assisting in activities during the day, working as a dorm counselor (living with the campers 24/7), and helping out wherever needed. We are specifically looking for staff who are future teachers or those who have a passion in working with children.

We are very much a typical camp, with camp songs, camp fires, friendship building, etc.. With a limited enrollment of about 100 campers, we have a dedicated & talented staff, interested in working with kids/teens and helping them gain skills and grow, with many current and future teachers on staff.

If you are looking to live and work with children in a small community, geared for bright and creative kids, feel free to fill out a staff application at www.maineartscamp.com.  Salary for the 5 weeks is very competitive and includes room and board.  For further information, contact Rick Mades, camp director, at 561-865-4330 or maineartscamprick@gmail.com.
