ABOUT GRAPHICSTUDIO INTERNSHIPS

Graphicstudio accepts a limited number of University of South Florida students for unpaid, course-credit internships each semester. These competitive positions are available to both undergraduate and graduate students interested in working in studio/production, curatorial, and marketing/sales areas. Interns gain valuable hands-on experience while supporting Graphicstudio’s operations. During their time at the studio, students observe how professional artists collaborate with a printmaking atelier, deepen their knowledge of printmaking traditions and editions, and gain insight into professions and opportunities related to the contemporary art industry.

Priority is given to Graduating Seniors from the School of Art & Art History, but applications from all majors are welcome. 

Students from a variety of majors may apply and focus on one of the areas listed below: 

  • Studio/Production: A student interested in studio production will work closely with the Master Printers and studio staff to gain hands-on experience in traditional and contemporary printmaking processes. Responsibilities may include assisting with editioning, paper preparation, documentation, and general studio maintenance, while learning proper safety procedures and professional printmaking standards. Strong attention to detail, technical precision, patience, learning by observing, and the ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced professional studio environment are essential.
  • Curatorial Area: A student interested in interning in the Curatorial area will work under the supervision of the Curator and Registrar, gaining experience in the proper care, handling, storage, and framing of artwork. Responsibilities may include assisting in gallery installations and the packaging and distribution of artwork. Hands-on skills are essential; physical labor is required. Strong organizational skills and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced professional environment are also advantageous.
  • Marketing/Sales: Students interested in learning about the marketing and sales of limited edition prints and sculpture multiples will work directly with the Director of Sales and Marketing. The student will gain insight into the commercial art world by assisting with social media, content development, strategic initiatives, and sales-generation efforts for the studio.
