[Communications] {AUA} Summer positions in youth programs

[Voice of the City “VOTC”]

Voice of the City (VOTC) is accepting resumes until Sunday, May 4, 2025 for 
Artist/Teachers for summer teen program: Design.Build.Grow.Eat., a program 
presented with After School Matters (ASM). 

DBGE has served hundreds of youth since 2013, guiding them in how they can 
positively impact their environment, learn about whole food from farm 
to table, food access/justice, while at the same time learning about 
themselves and each other (through sharing and exploring the teens' food 
traditions). Experience in landscape design, urban farming/gardening, basic 
building skills, and/or farm-to-table cooking is a plus. 

2023 marks a new direction for VOTC, focusing on people's relationship with 
Nature due to its new historic property in West Pullman. VOTC seeks to 
ground identity, individual and collective, in connections to each other, 
the land, and ancestral history, leading to community healing and inspiring 
VOTC’s creative work moving forward.

Applicants' resumes, work experience, and references will be reviewed. 

WHEN: 
Summer: June 23 to August 10, 2025 (10 - 25 hours/week plus paid prep in 
weeks prior). In-person only.

VOTC leadership works hard to build a team and to set a coordinated 
schedule that allows team members the schedule and pay goals they need. 

WHERE: Logan Square and/or West Pullman/Pullman

WHO: VOTC serves a very diverse youth population. All are welcome to apply.

PAY RATES: Based on experience reflected on applicant's resume, $18 to 
$30/hr (hourly rates are determined by ASM based on teaching experience 
aligned with participant population)

*NOTE: A background check is required during the interview process due to 
the tight hiring window for summer. *
