Art Sphere Inc. is a volunteer-based arts non-profit that has an exciting opportunity through the Aerie Real Foundation for high school girls, ages 14-17, to participate in a 10-week program. This is a GREAT opportunity for girls who love art and are thinking about pursuing a career in teaching and/or technology.
Participants will assist a certified art teacher at one of Philadelphia's Recreation Centers. In addition to two hours a week for classroom time, students will be trained and will be given access to our Microsoft 365 workspace where they can attend meetings and learn from professionals in a variety of fields (social media, web design, design, animation and video editing).
The program starts on October 16 and ends on Dec 20. Students are encouraged to sign up soon as space is limited and onboarding can take several days. We will provide $50 stipends for students who sign up by October 16.
Participants need to sign up with a parent's permission for participation using the form found here: https://artsphere.org/volunteer/.
