Summer Job at Carr House

Carr House is currently seeking applicants for the position of Heritage
Interpreter for the summer season at Carr House. The Heritage Interpreter
will be responsible for presenting engaging and thought-provoking guided
tours for visitors to Carr House. The presentations will explore the
history of the place, the life of Emily Carr and the heritage preservation
of the site. Importantly, the heritage interpreter will be responsible for
researching and incorporating the First Nations story of the site and
surrounding area. The Heritage Interpreter will also create a small exhibit
and a map as part of the interpretation. The executive director will
provide guidance in this as well as in exploring avenues of research
through local archives, historical records, and online courses. The
Heritage Interpreter will also receive mini-workshop training in subjects
of museology such as care and handling of collections and exhibit
fabrication, and be given the opportunity for off-site visits to other
local historic sites and museums. Shop sales, light cleaning and opening
and closing of the site will be required as part of the duties.

As this position is funded through the Young Canada Works program,
candidates must be planning to attend a post-secondary program in the fall.
