New York, United States Writopia Lab Full time

Overview

Do you love kids? Are you excited by the idea of helping children learn to write short stories and plays with beginnings, middles, and (drum roll) endings? Then look no further: Writopia Lab is looking for interns for our Upper West Side and Brooklyn labs in New York City.

Since its formation in New York City in 2007, Writopia Lab has grown into a nationwide community of young writers and creative writing workshops for kids ages 6 to 18. Our mission is to foster joy, literacy, and critical thinking in children and teens from all backgrounds through creative writing. We create a safe and engaging space for writers at all stages of the writing process, and we aim to provide the creative inspiration, individual attention, and intellectual environment that may not be available to them at school.

What Interns Do

Interns are half teaching assistants, half camp counselors, and are able to serve as role models to our young writers while cultivating their love for writing and confidence. While in workshop, interns provide typing, editorial, and moral support to our writers. For our full-day camp programming, interns support and lead electives (doing everything from leading literary games in the park to supporting a songwriting session) and engage with and guide our writers throughout the day.

Pay and Hours

$16 per hour; 15 to 30 hours per week from early June through mid August

Requirements

Must have received a GED or graduated from high school by June of 2023 We are looking for candidates who find it easy to be supportive and enthusiastic about young writers' work and who can learn to be thoughtful editors and guides. We are looking for applicants with majors or minors--or a strong background in--English, Creative Writing, or Education. Availability to work in-person at our locations on the Upper West Side (Manhattan) or Park Slope (Brooklyn). Internships start in June and end in August, and all interns are required to commit to the end of the summer. Must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, including at least one booster

How to Apply

If you are excited by the idea of joining a community of writers and helping children and teens learn to strengthen their writing skills, please apply Please attach your resume and a short cover letter which answers the question “Why do you want to work at Writopia Lab?” Applicants who do not include a cover letter will not be considered.

The deadline to apply is March 10, 2024.
