Almost 10 years of teaching kiddos to cook in San Francisco, and we’ve got some serious pros in our community. This year we are inviting Artistas ages 12-16 to apply for our culinary leadership counselor in training (CIT) program. Previous attendance at our camps or school programs is a perk but not required.
This fun and innovative program has a limited number of spots available in each camp session. Culinary Artistas is looking for applicants who love cooking and also a have desire to be a mentor to younger children during camp. Applicants will be considered for preferred dates on a first come first served basis and an application to the program does not guarantee acceptance.
Once the following application is complete, you will receive a confirmation of acceptance within 2 weeks. Please note that in order to be eligible for this program, applicants must:
--Be 12 years of age by June 1st of 2025
-- Be able to commit to a 2 week session of camp (consecutive weeks)
-- Attend a CIT training session before their first day of camp (Sunday, May 4th, 2025)
The full cost of a 2-week Culinary Leadership CIT program is $840 for SF, and $420 for the East Bay (half days). Once accepted, a registration link will be sent to process payment and confirm enrollment. Please note that this is a training program, focused on developing leadership skills and assisting younger campers, and not designed as advanced culinary training for teens.
