We’re looking for someone with a strong interest in the visual and/or performing arts. Most importantly we are looking for someone who is curious, a good communicator, and willing to learn and try new things. This role is highly variable, and we require someone who can work well with others as well as independently. This summer we will be mostly working in our Picton studio, but also at Macaulay Village Park and several summer festivals. This person will either perform in or work backstage at The Delhi Park Pageant, a large-scale community play.
