This is a hands-on summer position working alongside Pivot’s Artistic Director Jacob Zimmer and Managing Artistic Producer Norah Paton to plan, coordinate, and deliver our summer outreach and Community Puppets programming. You’ll help build and animate giant puppets, work on simple carpentry projects, coordinate logistics for outdoor events, and connect with Whitehorse residents and visitors – from families at the farmers’ market to elders in continuing care homes. If you’re curious, adaptable, and excited about community arts and light carpentry, this is a role for you!
