At Eager Enrichment, we've been inspiring young minds since 2008 through engaging after-school programs. Our Eager Artists program brings art to life for thousands of elementary students with exciting, hands-on projects including collage, clay, drawing, and watercolor.
We pay $35 a class, and $20 an hour for onboarding and staff meetings. If you're passionate about both art and working with children, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!
