About

The MOCHA Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program gives 6th-8th graders the opportunity to develop their art, customer service, and work experience skills in a supportive, creative museum environment.

The CIT program is a 1 week program consisting of camp training, work development skills, and art for the summer.

CIT hours are M-F (Depending on Camp schedule) 9:00am-3:30pm. If CIT requires care after camp, they will transition to the aftercare program (3:30pm-5:30pm) at an additional fee of $25 per day.

Role & Responsibilities

CITs build leadership skills and train as MOCHA Art Camp Counselors. Each CIT will work with staff to prepare and support the Teaching Artist in the class and during all outside activities.
CITs support staff members in camper supervision, activity preparation, basic equipment maintenance, and other routine camp duties.
