Teach KC-area campers the magic of tie-dye and art! We are seeking volunteer art and tie-dye instructors to lead campers in tie-dye and/or art projects at camp (about an hour south of KC).
Wildwood has an assortment of art and tie-dye materials, and we can acquire special materials if requested. We're especially interested in volunteers who could teach batik-dyeing or other unique art techniques.
Volunteers may volunteer for a single day during the summer, for multiple days during a week-long camp session (i.e. June 9, 10, and 11), or for multiple days across several camp sessions (i.e. every Tuesday from June 9 to July 21).
Ideal for individuals with an interest and some experience with art and/or tie-dye.
Orientation will take place in person at camp. Masks are not required while outdoors; we ask that all volunteers wear masks around campers when indoors.
