  Summer Arts Program Seeks Coaches & Teachers (CA)
Posted March 4, 2009


Note: This is a four week program. Cyn was the Circus teacher at this program last year and worked along side a NYC clown/performer who flew out to be the drama/art teacher. The facility is mostly wonderful but can get crowded and you will spend all day with the kids with very little down time so patience and flexibility are key. Cyn would do it again but landed a gig as camp director a bit nearer to home. Feel free to contact her if you have questions, or to ask for a reference.
