Studio Artists are professional working artists who enjoy and are comfortable sharing their artistic and technical skills with children, ages 4-12. Studio Artists are flexible, energetic, enthusiastic, creative, and able to think on their feet while working with a large mixed aged group of kids at any one time. Artists have a keen ability and interest in global cultural awareness and share their own creative process with others, as well as provide mentoring for our younger developing leaders. Artists must be comfortable leading, be diplomatic, possess excellent communication skills, and present a welcoming presence to all campers, counselors, and fellow staff members.

Grace Art Camp Art Studios typically include Animation Arts, Ceramics & Sculpture, Collage, Culinary Arts, Drawing & Illustration, Fibre & Textile Arts, Fused & Mosaic Glass, Music & Dance, Paper & Book Arts, Photography, Printmaking, Theatre, T-Shirt Design, and more depending on what individual artists may bring from their own skills, culturally specific art processes, and areas of expertise.

At this time, we are specifically seeking Ceramics, Culinary Arts, Glass, Music & Dance, or Theater & Puppetry artists for Summer 2026: Stories of Cuba. Artists should be able to develop studio projects and performances based on the camp’s cultural focus and/or the weekly stories.

Studio Artists select the weeks they are available to teach. Artists should be available for the entirety of the weeks selected, though some studios are 5-day, running Monday through Friday, and some are 3-day, running Wednesday through Friday. Artist hours are 8:30am to 3:45pm. 

If you are interested in being a Studio Teaching Artist, please email your resume and cover letter to the Camp Director, Ashley Klump, at ashleyk@grace-institute.org.
