Chicago Arts Program:
Internships, Seminars, Workshops

The Chicago Arts Program is a 15-week semester of urban art immersion during which students explore the arts through practical, creative and scholarly activity. While living in Chicago, in addition to attending a wide range of cultural events, students meet and work with local artists and arts professionals in part-time internships, on independent study projects and in the Core seminar, Negotiating Chicago’s Art World. Possible internship placements include, but are not limited to, museums and galleries, artists’ studios, theatre and dance companies, recording studios and popular music venues, literary organizations and publications, film and video production companies, architecture firms, arts education and community outreach organizations, and graphic and interior designers.

Not limited to arts majors, the program benefits all students who have strong career interests or graduate school aspirations in the arts and humanities. An ACM program.
