Artist in Residence
Each site develops their own Artist in Residence (AIR) Program. This program welcomes emerging and established regional and national artists who have demonstrated a commitment to innovation, exploration, community outreach, and education. The AIR is responsible for developing a program that incorporates arts from all disciplines into the Camp schedule, which may include: painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography, video, music, literature, dance, conceptual and installation art, and contemporary performance.
Working collaboratively with our team, artists help to introduce new techniques, materials, and ideas designed to help youth explore various forms of expression through art. This facilitates individual growth within campers and is done in a safe and open environment.
If you or someone you know is an artist who is passionate about youth programming, public education, advocacy and social justice, please contact the Camp fYrefly site nearest you.
We are looking for an artist with the skills, experience, and vision to provide arts-based programming for 2SLGBTQ+ youth. The AIR will be responsible for the development and coordination of arts-based programming for Camp, which includes workshops and asynchronous activities from a variety of disciplines via an in-person or online format.
