Internships

Guidelines and Application

High School or College Internships usually last 3-6 mos., and are unpaid and are intended for artists who are enrolled in fine arts programs locally, regionally, or nationally who wish to acquire further experience in printmaking and/or book arts. An intern may assist with printing editions, publications, marketing and publicity, graphic design, web-site development, shop operations, gallery projects, workshop preparations, etc. All interns are given the opportunity to take one free workshop.  Please call or email us about becoming an intern.

For-credit internships

The Ink Shop arranges for-credit internships with a hosting college or university, for 1, 2, 3 or 4 credits., depending on the student’s interest.  A faculty member must act as a sponsor and sign the necessary paperwork. The Ink Shop will discuss with the student the specific tasks he/she will be doing during the internship. The Ink Shop will arrange with the student a set schedule of hours per week he/she will intern, and progress reports are made once or twice during the duration of the internship.

Non-credit internships

The Ink Shop encourages students to also intern as volunteers for a negotiated amount of time. The Ink Shop expects a regular commitment on the part of the student, setting a weekly schedule with our staff.
