We want you!!

Each summer, 6018North hires 4-5 Chicagoland High School students to learn skills and collaborate with artists to realize various projects including aspects of Justice Hotel, In Wood We Trust, Its Elemental, and yearly projects for EXPO Chicago. Students have learned woodworking, video editing, audio recording, and podcasting.

Most importantly, you learn cooperation: to work with each other, mentors, and artists, along with stick-to-itiveness. You will build museum quality work in a fun, creative, dynamic space. We teach the craft of woodworking - an older, often forgotten system of production and bodily movement - and pair it with video and sound production. While the woodworking honors craftsmanship, the video and audio production allows for a highly experimental approach.
