make sophisticated projects, learn new skills, and lead young campers The CIT Studio program is a combination of project-making, project *designing* and hands-on help with campers in the classroom. Project-making: CITs spend the first part of the day working on their own projects for creative self-expression. Each project touches on a different material and technique, and from there, they can let their own creativity be their guide. Project-designing: Over the course of the week, CITs work in pairs to design a project to lead with their camper group. They learn how to organize the materials, create and lead a how-to, prep key steps, organize the supplies, and lead a small class through a project they have designed. Working with campers: CIT pairs are matched with a specific camper class to work with over the course of the week. In the afternoon, CITs join their camper class to assist the instructor, and help campers with their projects. Outside of the camper classroom, CITs are guided on leadership skills and working with a young group. At the end of the week, CITs lead their *own* project – the one they’ve been developing over the week – with their camper class. Some of this year’s new projects at Curious Jane were inspired by CIT creations from last summer! [The program is designed around a one-week experience, and CITs may join for one or two weeks, without repeating projects.]
