AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

from LA Culture Net

Summer job opportunities for college students are now available through the Los Angeles County Arts Internship Program. Interested students are encouraged to apply immediately for these internships at arts organizations throughout Los Angeles County. Students apply directly to the organization offering the internship not the Arts Commission. Detailed descriptions, including contacts, for the internship positions are available at lacountyarts.org/internships. Internships run for 10 consecutive weeks between June and August 2016.

Graduating seniors who complete their undergraduate degrees between May 1 - September 1, 2016 are eligible, as well as current undergraduate students. Applicants must have completed at least one semester of college by June 2016 and be currently enrolled in a community college or a four-year university. Applicants must be a resident of and/or attending school in Los Angeles County. Students who have previously participated in the Los Angeles County Arts Internship Program are not eligible to participate a second time.

The positions are for 10 weeks and pay $420 per week. Interns also take part in educational and arts networking activities generously funded by The Getty Foundation. Through the program, interns develop business skills that can be put to use in their future careers and gain a deeper understanding of the work involved in nonprofit arts administration and the role of the arts in a community.
