The
Internship Program has been an integral part of the Morgan Conservatory
since its creation in 2008. Morgan internships provide mutual benefit
to the Morgan Conservatory and to interns. Interns will be immersed in
hand papermaking, book arts, and letterpress in exchange for completing
tasks that include, but are not limited to tending the garden, assisting
with workshops, maintaining the studios, and other general housekeeping
and assigned tasks. Interns are expected to be engaged with the
papermaking processes, both Eastern and Western styles; our goal is that
every intern become a proficient papermaker by the end of the
internship term.
The
Morgan Conservatory seeks interns who work well in groups, take
initiative, are willing and able to do physical labor, and are able to
handle the flowing nature of our working studio. Tasks may vary
day-to-day. Interns will work under the intern coordinator as well as
with our artistic director and paper studio coordinator. Interns will
also have the opportunity to work alongside visiting artists and
instructors with national reputations. All Internships are unpaid.
We
are offering full-time and part-time internships during the summer
2014. More information and details on how to apply are available on our
website.
The deadline to apply is April 18, 2014.
