Springville Center for the Arts (SCA) has an extensive history of offering summer art programs to the youth of our community. We routinely hire four Theater Arts interns to facilitate drama workshops. This year we are expanding the program to include a six week Visual Arts internship / residency open to college students.
Participants will:
- Teach/direct a variety of workshops including Drawing, Painting, Puppetry, Public Art, and more. Class topics are based on the skill set of the applicants.
- Assist our existing SPARK (Creative programs based on the Reggio Emilia approach) instructors with SPARK sessions.
- Assist our Theater interns and students with set design for their musical productions (Two Elementary and Middle School productions, 1 High School/College production).
The program begins July 7 and ends August 18 (6 weeks).
Springville Center for the Arts is a growing multi-arts center located in a rural community in Western New York State. An apartment shared with other interns and a stipend of $150 per week is provided.
