The Apprentice Program
Our Apprentice Program (Assistants, ages 14-18 and Jr. Helpers, ages 10-13) provides a fabulous opportunity for experienced Conservatory students to help inspire and motivate the next generation while learning valuable leadership, teaching, and communication skills. Opportunities available for accepted students include weekly classes in our Conservatory, Little Limelight, and Youth Musical program as well as birthday parties, special events, mini-camps and more. Jr. Helpers are volunteers and Assistants are paid MA minimum wage.
