Arts
For the last three years Convergence has participated in the TC Williams High School Senior Experience. Each year seniors spend three weeks with us as interns. This experience has led to our development of ongoing internships for young people.
Our program includes exposure to all aspects of running a multidisciplinary arts center as well as an individualized component where the intern is invited to develop a creative project for Convergence. In addition to participating in our day to day life, the intern is given a mentor to work with in researching, budgeting, planning and developing their project. Some projects are then implemented.
Most recently, Emma Bartley, Julia Beiro and Hayden Arp developed projects to create a quarterly magazine for Convergence, a bi-annual CD featuring musicians who record and perform in the Lab and a strategy to use more social media to connect with a larger audience. These projects from fresh minds help Convergence be more aware of the needs and resources in our community.
We accept applications for internships on an ongoing basis and will be participating the in Senior Experience again this year. For more information about internships please contact Dan ABH, Lab All Ages Coordinator. Wanna learn more? Checkout our extensive FAQ section online!
