Funding

I have been working in America at a children's summer camp for the summer. I have been working with this camp for five summer's starting a counselor teaching drama to join the management team as Head Of Girls camp. This is a great experience for me, working within a different country with many international staff and holding a position that requires much responsibility, flexibility and patience.

I returned this year to once again experience the amazing summer I have every year but also to raise money to aid my stay with Stella Polaris.

Stella Polaris is a non-profit Theatre company and to spend a year with the company I have to find the finance to fund my stay in Norway.

I applied to many arts organisations to fund my placement here but unfortuantely I wasn't able to raise the full amount requested, so I proceeded to work with the summer camp for an intensive three month programme in order to raise enough funds.

I am still applying for various small funds that will enable me to attend certain workshops and attend further training programmes here in Norway throughout my stay.
