Application Deadline
March 30, 2013


Applications must be received at the Sitka Center by this date.

The Art Center Intern position is available for summer 2013.


The Sitka Center's Intern Program began in 1993 as a way to improve service to our workshop instructors and students.

Art Center Intern

The Art Center Intern position begins in Mid-May or Mid-June and goes through Mid-August or Mid-September. (The dates are flexible to coordinate with the student's school schedule.) The Intern works 35-40 hours per week and will assist with the operation of the summer workshops (2 days per week) and work on a graduate or undergraduate level project in support of the Center's programs (three days per week). Projects are developed based on the Intern's areas of interest and Sitka's needs. Types of projects may include marketing, event planning, graphic design, and photography. In return, the intern receives housing on the Sitka Center campus, a small stipend ($250/month), and the opportunity to work in our studios (as available). This is an excellent opportunity to gain experience in the daily operation of an art center.

The Art Center Intern has an opportunity to interact with Sitka staff and approximately 1000 students who attend workshops at Sitka during the summer program. For more details, please open this PDF document of the Art Center Intern Description and Application.
