An internship is the perfect introduction to the career students want to pursue. They provide opportunities for students to build their resumes and to learn in an experiential setting while testing their interests in the field. The AES Arts Entrepreneurship Initiative and HFA Advising and Career Center, encourage students to complete at least three internships before graduation to gain experience before heading out to the job market. In these past few months, many arts and humanities organizations have been adjusting to the current climate and shifting how they provide internships. Like so many other industries, some immediately pivoted their internships online this past March when the COVID-19 emergency surfaced, while others are now planning for their next steps to relaunch their opportunities in the fall.
