Host an Intern
Announcing the Arts and Business Council's Multicultural
Arts Management Internship that matches 11 diverse
undergraduates with 11 NYC arts organizations to "learn the
business of the arts." Interns spend ten weeks (June
1-August 7) working on their host organization's projects
in areas such as marketing, fundraising, event planning,
community outreach, arts education, programming, research
and more.
Apply to be an intern host supervisor—you'll get a
significant management experience for yourself and an extra
brain for your organization.
To host an intern your organization must:
• be a nonprofit with at least two full-time staff;
• have offices within the five boroughs of New York
City;
• be a current member of Arts & Business Council of
New York (or become one);
• contribute $1,000 to your intern's stipend (that
works out to $2.50/hour on your part, such a deal);
• be able to provide an intern with a meaningful
project (i.e. not completely clerical).And this is what you
get:
• an bright, shiny undergraduate intern for 10 weeks
of full-time assistance;
• $1,500 grant from ABC/NY to contribute to the
intern's stipend;
• an unlimited MetroCards for the duration of the
program for the intern;
• a network of other host organizations, interns, and
intern mentors from businesses like ConEd and Time Warner;
• invitations to attend exclusive program site visits
at other host organizations.
The application deadline is February 2.
