THEATER & ARTS EDUCATION INTERN

Waterwell is a group of artists, educators and producers dedicated to telling engrossing stories in unexpected ways. We create productions that are creatively daring and emotionally potent to cultivate connections across real and perceived divides. We train young artists, and educators, to create work with an artist-as-citizen ethos as the foundation of their creative process.

Waterwell is seeking a paid in person education intern for the 2022-23 season. Waterwell is committed to making sure that every intern has a rich and valuable educational experience. The intern will work closely with Director of Education Heather Lanza and Waterwell’s Program Manager Christina Gonzalez. Our goal is for interns to gain invaluable hands-on experience with a wide range of tasks that will prepare them to enter the field as entrepreneurial, artistic-minded leaders.
We are looking for a self-starter who is a great communicator and passionate art-maker. We value kindness and generosity as fundamental aspects of our collaborative, team-driven office and producing culture. A working knowledge of G Suite and Microsoft Office Suite is a major plus.

COMPENSATION
We offer compensation of $16/hour, as well as class credit if applicable.
