The Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts Summer Internship Program provides a unique learning opportunity for individuals interested in careers in performing arts administration and related fields. Volunteer interns are placed in one of the many dynamic departments of the world's leading performing arts center in the midst of its busy season of summer festivals.
The Program offers invaluable hands-on training and experience through participation in projects and assignments that allow for the practical application of academic knowledge and the development of business skills necessary for a career in the arts. Interns work side by side with arts professionals in areas such as production, public relations, financial management, marketing, arts education, visual arts, library sciences, and fundraising as they experience the day-to-day workings of a large, world-class performing arts center.
Designed to provide not only practical training but also encouragement, inspiration and role models for a new generation, the Program offers significant opportunities for networking with senior-level administrators through educational workshops and informational meetings. Interaction with fellow interns and professionals on staff allow for the creation of valuable contacts for the future.
Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts is committed to providing a quality learning and training experience for its interns.
