Resident Internships

Serious students of sculpture will gain invaluable knowledge through their participation in our Intern Program as studio assistants. In return for maintenance of the campus and assistance to instructors, interns are compensated with a small stipend, in addition to room and board. Resident Interns take part in workshops, work independently, have access to our art studios for learning and creating, as well as sculpture tools, materials and supplies, and constitute a vital presence at the CSSC. Intern selection takes place in the early spring for the following season.
