Volunteer Art Instructor

Cancer Support Community Arizona (CSCAZ), is the only nonprofit organization in Arizona to provide no-cost emotional support services to anyone impacted by cancer of any type throughout their cancer journey. Our services are crucial because, while cancer patients typically receive state-of-the-art medical treatment, effective cancer care also requires the integration of psychological and social services (like what CSCAZ provides) to identify and address issues associated with a cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

We are seeking experienced volunteer class instructors who can provide in-kind programs at our main Palm Lane Campus. Ideal candidates will be experienced professionals in any medium of art but can gear their medium towards a therapeutic offering. We currently offer the following mediums to name a few:

• Clay - Kiln Onsite
• Mixed Media Journaling
• Portraits
• Charcoal
• Pour Painting
• Water Color
• Zen Tangle

Suggested Qualifications:

• Experience facilitating classes or groups in the areas of creative arts.
• Knowledge of the unique needs of those with chronic illnesses is highly desired.
• Evidence of expertise in the subject matter (e.g. degree, years of experience, credentialling and/or licensure)
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Bilingual Opportunities Available

This is a volunteer position in which the facilitator will provide one or more monthly classes in-kind, in-person at our Central Phoenix/Palm Lane location. Dates and Times can be flexible to volunteer's schedule and event needs.
