Summer teaching experience for Students

[brai...@telus.net]

Camp Med-O-Lark (medolark.com), an arts camp in Washington, ME, is looking
for summer counselors with experience in fine metals, vitreous enameling,
beading (including polymer work) and other visual art forms. Camp Med-O-Lark
is a both a visual and performing arts camp with campers between 8-16 years
old. Dates are from June 16 to August 19, 2010 (the 1st two weeks is Staff
Training time). Starting salary is $1,750 for 1st year counselors who have
completed at least one year of college. The job also includes living in a
cabin with campers and having night activity responsibilities, along with a
generous time off schedule. Room and board (including vegetarian, not vegan,
choices) included. Only non-smokers need apply. This is a summer job that is
loads of fun, gives you the opportunity to meet others from all over the
world (both counselor and camper), and allows you to teach what you love to
do - enameling, beading or making metal jewelry!

Current Studio Offerings where counselors are needed:
* Metals: we teach basic jewelry techniques with silver and copper. We have
a joint program, one period a day, with the enameling studio. We even have a
rolling mill for basse taille enameling and metal texturing. And offer
pierced and soldered Champleve.
* Enameling: we teach Cloisonne on fine silver and copper enameling with
both grain and liquid enamels in a variety of techniques including
sgraffito, stenciling, etching for Champleve and Basse Taille, scrolling,
raku and more.
* Beading: we teach stitching (off loom bead weaving), wire work, working
with polymer, some stringing and some loom work. This program is geared
towards working with seed beads, but we have extensive bead inventory of
various types to augment designs. Last summer we started making French
Beaded Flowers for hair ornaments.
* Other visual arts � Med-O-Lark is also looking for counselors who know
candle making, painting, pottery, drawing and more. Please tell your friends
to look on the camp�s website (medolark.com) for more info.
We try to coordinate between studios so campers can make something in one
and use it to complete a piece in another.
