The MR Internship Program hosts ongoing internships during the fall and spring seasons, as well as winter and summer internships geared toward college and university students and recent graduates. The MR Internship Program has a work-study structure — interns work with and are mentored by MR staff and, in exchange, receive access to MR classes and select workshops.

The Internship Program offers a range of internship positions for artists and arts workers ages 18 and up. Movement Research is equipped to work with students who are seeking credits through a college program or course. Read on for details on the positions, openings, and how to apply.

[Hybrid] Program & Events Internship

Open to All. Degree-Seeking Candidates Preferred:
This internship position is a 6 month commitment for the Fall/Winter 2024 season (September 2024 – February 2025); the average weekly commitment is between 8-12 hours per week, though hours may vary according to credit requirements and programming needs. The schedule will be determined in collaboration with MR staff. Interviews will begin in August 2024. Training will begin in early September 2024, for a mid September 2024 start date.

There are 3-5 Programs & Events internship positions available for the Fall/Winter seasons.

The Programs & Events Interns work closely with the Programs and Events Manager and Associates to organize and implement Movement Research’s artist programs and events. The primary duty is to assist in the management and implementation of Movement Research classes and workshops, including the MELT workshop series, as an onsite liaison between faculty, artists, students, and MR staff. MR internships follow a work-study format, in that interns are encouraged to participate in the classes, workshops, and/or events they work, while also gaining access to nearly all Movement Research classes for free. This position works in-person, with limited opportunity for remote work.

Programs & Events Interns can expect a fairly consistent schedule in coordination with Movement Research’s ongoing class schedule. When applying, please share with us your interest in MR classes and faculty, as well as your anticipated weekly schedule for the Fall of 2024. The Programs & Events Internship also has the opportunity to support events such as GPS Chats, Studies Projects, and the Movement Research at the Judson Church performance series in a front of house capacity.

Candidates should have experience with Zoom, Google Docs and/or Microsoft Excel and Word, as well as strong organizational skills, punctuality, and attention to detail. As this is a public-facing role, excellent interpersonal and communication skills are essential. Knowledge of Filemaker Pro or experience with databases is not required but helpful.

To apply, submit a cover letter and resume reflecting relevant experience as well as your anticipated weekly availability to internship@movementresearch.org. Please add the following in the subject line: “FULL NAME. Programs & Events Internship: Fall Application.”
