Internships

The Joyce Theater Foundation is committed to helping the next generation of arts administrators. If you are interested in learning about what it takes to run The Joyce, we offer internships in the fall, spring and summer seasons in the arts administrative areas of Programming, Development, Marketing, Finance and Education. Internships are available to college and graduate level students, recent graduates and early career professionals. We ask that you send a cover letter, describing your background and skills, particularly those that relate to your administrative area(s) of interest, as well as the time (months, days of week, number of hours, etc.) that you are available for an internship, along with a current resume. Your resume will be forwarded to the appropriate department(s).

Internship applications for spring/summer 2012 positions have been closed for all departments with the exception of the IT department. Applications for the fall '12/winter '13 season will be accepted in mid July. For additional information, to submit materials or to inquire about the status of an application, email jrhill@joyce.org.
