Vantaggi
This internship was incredibly informative. Elizabeth is extremely passionate about her craft and it is truly inspiring. I not only learned about techniques and skills, but also about confidence and how to advocate for yourself in the art world. Throughout this internship, the gallery hosted a plethora of events that provided both entertainment and networking opportunities that were open to all interns. That inviting nature was so refreshing to witness in an art world that has increasingly become cliquey and exclusive over the years. I would definitely recommend this internship for anyone trying to break into the art industry.
Svantaggi
Liz is very passionate so if you can’t quite match that energy it may not be the best experience for you. Not all internships are built to eventually integrate you into the business in a paid position, this internship is purely educational, so if you’re looking for employment after, look elsewhere. However, if you give it your all, you may walk out with a letter of recommendation and a connection or two. I didn’t agree with everything I heard politically, but that’s what happens when you’re in a diverse workspace.
