Through the Arts Administration Internship, the Center for Photography at Woodstock offers individuals the opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of the day-to-day operations of an artist-centered not-for-profit space. 

By participating in CPW's wide-range of activities including working on exhibitions, coordinating events, and collaborating with CPW's full time staff Interns leave the experience with a broader, deeper understanding of contemporary photography and how they can pursue a career in the arts - whether as a working photographer or a curator or arts professional. Final projects include curating a temporary exhibition from CPW's permanent print collection and contributing a book review to CPW's quarterly publication, PQ. 

This internship is ideal for individuals who are passionate about the arts, interested in pursuing a professional career in photography, art history, curatorial, editorial, and both the world of not-for-profits artist spaces and commercial galleries. To learn more about this opportunity click here

 Each spring, CPW seeks candidates to help facilitate the Woodstock Photography Workshop & Lecture series, an education series where national and international photographers serve as guest instructors, which runs from June through mid-October.

Workshop Interns participate in this renown program by working side-by-side with each guest instructor and students who come from all over the USA and abroad to study with in the inspiring setting of Woodstock and the surrounding Catskill region. 

It is the ideal hands-on-experience for any emerging photographer seeking to enhance their understanding of the craft, become exposed to different teaching styles and photographic approaches, and pursue a life-long passion in photography. To learn more about this internship, click here.
