Internship Position Title: Studio Intern

Internship Description
I am a visual artist, fabric designer and surface designer. Along with having a fabric line and painting, I design patterns to be licensed out to different companies for different products. In the past, I have worked with companies like Anthropologie, Urban Outfitters, and One Kings Lane in similar partnerships.
My work is heavily social media based. Most of my purchasers have found out about my work through social media, therefor it is a large priority for the intern on a daily basis!
He/she would fulfill and ship orders right out of my studio at the Cigar Factory and manage the back end of my online website. They would keep inventory of supplies and work with clients directly if there are any issues with orders. I use Shopify to run my store, and I think it would be a great program for students to learn to navigate!
Most importantly, I think the intern would be encouraged and could see what it looks like if you wanted to make producing artwork into a career. The only people I came in contact with that were making a living as an artist were my teachers. I hope to show the intern the multiple ways you can make a job out of being a creative!
