As an artist’s assistant, this will be AMS’ first real job! She will be assisting Anna (Anna’s Art Workshop) in her children’s art workshop. Her duties will include helping the artist and helping to manage the younger kids attending the workshop. What a great experience!

Today’s theme was trains. No girls came. First I helped paint wooden trains. I got a lot of paint on my hands wiping off paintbrushes. I had to fill up the paint canisters and help the kids chang colors
Then I helped make paper trains covered in stickers and filled with popcorn. I also attached bells to the trains that the kids made.
After break, I helped a boy named Watt make train tracks. He was the youngest there so he was a really messy drawer. I also helped glue on bridges and tunnels with a hot glue gun on all the boys’ train tracks.
At the end, I got paid $15. That’s a lot of money. Anna, the art teacher said she’d let me know if there were going to be any other camps I could help with. I liked my first job.
