Spring Internship at The Center for Emerging Visual Artists

Our internships are available to (undergraduate/graduate) college students and recent college graduates to get to know a key player in the regional support system for visual artists. In this small non-profit arts organization, interns will have a unique hands-on experience, building upon skills and experiences learned in the classroom and applied in the field. Interns work closely with the CFEVA Staff on a diverse range of projects: installing exhibitions, programmatic strategy development, exhibition management, event promotion, social media management, and helping artists with community engagement projects across the city.

Interns will assist with:

Online art sales

General office administration, including regularly updating our website and social media

Assisting with membership outreach and mailings

Photographing events

Assisting with exhibition planning and research

Installation and deinstallation of exhibitions in Philadelphia as needed

Fundraising and development projects including technical support and database entry

Special events and openings, via Zoom and in person as needed

Interns can expect to work with us in-person and for remote opportunities, in Philadelphia. Interns should be eager to learn, have a good work ethic and attention to detail. Experience with Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite, MailChimp/Constant Contact, Canva, CRM databases, and Squarespace a plus. This is an unpaid position. We are happy to work with interns to achieve academic credit for an internship.

We review applications for interns on a rolling basis. To apply please send your resume and cover letter to lily@cfeva.org describing your interest in CFEVA.
