We are seeking an outstanding guy or gal to work with us this summer in our studio. If this interests you, here’s what we have to offer:

-Internship from approximately mid May – mid/late August (specific dates are not set). Roughly 15 weeks total.
-150-200 hours total working time (10-15 hours/week.)

Intern tasks will be varied, and could include: sorting type, reclaiming screens, proofing fonts, cleaning, packing posters, assisting with print runs, and helping with shop organization. A good understanding of either letterpress or screenprinting (or both!) is recommended, but not absolutely necessary.

ANDREW W. MELLON SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
The RISD Museum’s summer internship program is open to undergraduate and graduate students. Applicants should have some background in art history or fields related to the Museum department offering an internship. Please see descriptions of the internship positions in the application form. The ten-week internships begin on June 3, 2013, and end on August 9, 2013. Interns are expected to spend 20 hours a week in the Museum. Participation in the all-day Wednesday seminar focusing on museums is included in their weekly hours. Mellon interns receive a $2000 honorarium.
The goal of the program is to provide an overview of museum functions and in-depth experience working in conservation, curatorial, education, or registration departments. The internships are designed particularly for those students who have had little professional art museum experience. Interns will work on departmental projects and learn about the various activities that take place in the Museum, both the public functions and behind-the-scenes operations. At the end of the program each intern will submit a paper on her/his experience in the Museum and give a brief oral report to Museum staff and invited guests.
Participants may arrange for academic credit for the internships through their college or university. To do so they will need to fulfill the number of hours in the Museum required for credit at their home institutions and for any additional requirements, such as paper assignments, to qualify for that credit. Museum staff will provide supervision for such assignments as well as letters of support verifying the student’s participation in the internship program.
The deadline for submitting applications is March 4, 2013. Selected candidates will be interviewed in late March-early April.
Questions should be addressed to dwilde@risd.edu.

Application and submission information available at: http://www.risdmuseum.org/uploadedFiles/Museum_of_Art/Education/Summer-Internship-Application_2013.pdf

Here is what Christina Huang has to say about this program:
Last summer (2011) I interned at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston as a Studio Arts Classes Assistant under the Educational Department.  Each week, I worked with a new group of students in a variety of age groups (5-6, 7-7. 8-11. 12-14.15-18, and adults).  Each week focused a different type of art such as drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography or mixed media.  I assisted the instructor with preparing lesson plans and sometimes I had the opportunity to lead a lesson and perform an art demonstration on how to use the new materials.   I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would recommend other students to apply in the future.  The MFA posts new internships for the spring/summer/fall on their official website, which is where I found my internship.     http://www.mfa.org/
 

This Residency program is designed to “allow emerging and established artists the space to develop work in a supportive and creative environment, foster innovative teaching concepts, provide support for new and exciting workshop ideas, and give residents the ability to “test drive” different clay career possibilities.”

The Summer Studio Program at Virginia Commonwealth University (SSP@VCU) is an 8-week studio-intensive program for artists interested in developing work in a supportive hothouse environment. The program fosters development of professional attitudes and skills with an emphasis on individual investigation. The program provides students with an opportunity for concentrated studio practice at an advanced level within a community of talented and motivated artists. This two-month, non-credit, post-baccalaureate-style residency studio program is appropriate for the artist developing a portfolio for application to graduate school, as well as the artist interested in an opportunity for uninterrupted immersion and development of a studio practice in a challenging and supportive environment.

Sarah Knouse, a former TA in our sculpture area, attended this program and she had this to say about it:

This is a highly structured residency for post-BFA students of all ages and backgrounds. It is designed to challenge and prepare students intending to apply to an MFA program in the near future. Artists are organized into two groups via medium: Painting, or Sculpture and Extended Media. This intensive 2 month program includes access to state-of-the-art studio facilities, a private work space, regular tutorials with VCU faculty and visiting artists, group seminars regarding professional development/grad school applications, and weekly courses on graduate-level critical theory. In short, this is a 2 month taste of graduate school, culminating in an exhibition opportunity. If you do not receive a fellowship, program costs can be a bit steep. Housing is not provided. In my experience, this is a great experience for emerging artists considering graduate school, and a valuable opportunity to develop your artwork. You will better understand the studio practices of accomplished artists, and develop long-lasting relationships with your peers.

 

Both Sarah Knouse and Jessie Horning participated in this residency program. http://www.pajamafactory.net/air.php

Here is what Sarah had to say about the program:

This is a very loosely structured residency for emerging through mid-career artists of all mediums. Residents are provided with free living accommodations and studio space for a work exchange of 10 hours per week. Periods of stay can last from 1 to 2 months during June through July. Benefits of this program include lots of space to complete work, an end-of-stay exhibition opportunity, and a strong surrounding community of artists. As the pajama factory expands, a ceramics studio and metal shop are currently being developed. Printmaking facilities and related 2-D workshops are also provided. Wood-working equipment is lacking, and should perhaps be brought from home studio if possible.

 

In the summer of 2010 Johnny Picardo and Amanda Kline participated in workshops here.
