Requirement Details
As a volunteer your job will be a ‘general assistant’ to the teaching artist, helping with class management, assisting the interns as they learn music recording on Garage Band, providing one to one support to the interns and other duties as required. Helpful if you know Garage Band or Audacity. Must be comfortable assisting folks with disabilities. Must be reliable as the interns need continuity in who they deal with everyday. It is difficult to have to keep learning about a new person, so we request as many hours as possible. Bring your own lunch.
