Arts Internships in Maine!

The Maine Arts Commission has compiled a comprehensive list of Maine arts organizations that offer opportunities for students seeking internships. The list can be found on the Maine Arts Commission intern pages.

If you have regular opportunities for interns and are not listed, you can be added by completing a short questionnaire. The agency will add your organization to the listings and then provide your contact details to interns who are actively seeking opportunities.

People seeking internship opportunities can use this resource to find appropriate placement. Interested parties should go to the listings page, or the page of full postings to see what is available, and can contact organizations directly.

A special thanks to all of the organizations who have already listed. The response to this initiative has been overwhelming.

 

Maine Arts Interns.

The Maine Arts Commission is putting together a comprehensive list of organizations in Maine who would value the assistance and expertise that college interns could provide.

If you take three minutes to complete a short survey we will add your organization to our website and then provide your contact details to college interns who are actively seeking opportunities to help organizations such as yours.

Your input will help us create a concise database of organizations who wish to benefit from additional help throughout the year while offering valuable experience to Maine's college students. Thank you.
