Become a Creative Time Intern
Creative Time offers semester-long and summer internships to undergraduates, graduate students, and recent graduates (international applicants accepted) in each of our departments. We ask that interns in the Development, Executive & Operations, Marketing, and Global Initiatives departments work a minimum of 2 full days a week and interns in the Programming department work a minimum of 3 full days.
Selection for Creative Time’s internship program is made on the basis of the applicant’s interest and motivation in working for Creative Time, demonstrated ability to contribute, and commitment to a meaningful work experience. Interest and experience in nonprofits, public art, and the arts more broadly are a plus.
