About:
Oolite Arts’ High School Internship Program offers juniors and seniors a unique, hands-on opportunity to explore careers in the arts. Interns work across departments—including Programs, Education, Cinematic Arts, Printshop, and Exhibitions—while gaining insight into the day-to-day operations of a professional arts organization.
Throughout the internship, students will take part in professional development workshops, connect with resident artists, and learn directly from staff. Interns will also create a final presentation reflecting on their experience, shared during a celebratory farewell lunch.
Internships:
Programs Internship: Work behind the scenes on exhibitions, public programs, and events. Interns will contribute to a variety of community-facing initiatives that support artists and engage the public.
Printshop Internship: Support the daily operations of our professional printmaking studio. Interns will help maintain the space, assist during open studio hours, and deepen their knowledge of printmaking processes.
