Minneapolis artist seeks an intern/ studio assistant As the director of an award winning visual arts nonprofit for 10 years, I supervised many interns from colleges and universities throughout the Twin Cities area. I can provide references from these interns asserting to their positive experiences and gainful outcomes. One year into my career as a full time artist, and having a professional working studio, I am in a position to accept an intern. In exchange for general help around the studio, some mundane and boring (organizing letterpress fonts, cleaning paintbrushes, sorting paint), some résumé worthy/ skill building (helping to hang work, simple framing, assisting in hand-pulled print runs, documenting artwork) I will assist a young artist in seeking out exhibition venues, review their portfolio, and help with tasks like writing an artists statement and documenting work. I have much experience in helping others achieve their art career goals. I also have great contacts and make an excellent reference. I would prefer the internship to be through a school/ program, but would consider candidates not currently enrolled. The internship is UNPAID. However, I do have 10-15 hours of organizational work I need done that I wouldnt feel right about getting done for me by an intern for free. So, a short term part time job comes with the internship and could lead to a more permanent, part-time studio assistant position. Requirements: -Be able to transport yourself to my studio in NE Minneapolis -Available 4 hours a week (negotiable depending on your schools internship policies and requirements) -Be computer savvy. Having your own laptop you bring with you would be helpful but not necessary. -Be organized -Be a self-starter I will begin interviewing potential candidates in late June. Interested applicants please send an email to me at amyr@amyrice.com telling me about yourself, your art career goals, and why you would like to be my intern.
