Girls Rock Cincinnati Staff Application Summer Camp 2024
Girls Rock Cincinnati is hiring teaching artists for our 2024 Summer Camp! Our week-long summer camp focuses on creative arts as a vehicle for social change and provides teens ages 12-18 opportunities to build skills in instrumental music, vocals, songwriting, and visual arts.

This year, we have 3 available staff roles for individuals 18+. All positions are eligible for an optional stipend, and meals are included for all staff each day!

Aligning with our mission, we encourage applications from women, gender-expansive people, and people of color ages 18+. We are the most interested in finding the best people for our program. We encourage you to apply for the position even if you're not sure if you meet every one of the qualifications listed.

Counselors:
Stipend $600
Summer camp is nothing without the counselors! Counselors are responsible for general supervision, safety, and most importantly, building relationships with our campers to create a supportive and encouraging environment. No prior music experience is required, but some experience working with kids and teens is preferred. 
Counselors must be available for the full duration of Camp (M-F 9am-4pm) including the full Camp day on Saturday.

Instrument Instructors:
Stipend $200
The heart of rock camp is the rock, right? Instrument instructors are responsible for leading technical music education for our campers. We are seeking instructors for guitar, bass, drums, keys, and voice.  Lessons are held with small groups of campers (3-10) and will involve co-teaching with another instructor. Music experience is required but skill-level is flexible.
Instrument Instructors must be available in the mornings (9am-11am) for the full week of Camp, as well as the full camp day (12pm-8pm) Saturday.

Band Coaches:
Stipend $200
Campers will be placed in bands to write and play their own original music for the Final Showcase with the help of their Coaches! Band Coaches need not have extensive musical expertise, but should be able to encourage and guide our campers in their music creation. Each band is made up of 3-5 campers and will be assigned two Band Coaches. 
Band Coaches must be available in the afternoons (1:30pm-3:30pm) for the full week of Camp, as well as the full camp day (12pm-8pm) Saturday.
