Bloomberg Arts Internship ManagerBackground The Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance was founded in 1972 and is one of the nation’s best-known and most effective arts service organizations. We operate in five counties surrounding Philadelphia and also serve southern New Jersey and Northern Delaware as part of our metropolitan region. We have over 450 nonprofit and for-profit members, but the Alliance serves the entire cultural sector – over 1,500 performing arts, visual arts, history, science, horticulture, arts education, community art centers, and other cultural organizations. The Bloomberg Arts Internship, a program of the Cultural Alliance, and funded by Bloomberg Philanthropies, is a citywide arts internship for Philadelphia high school juniors with three key goals: To immerse young people in the world-class arts and culture sector of Philadelphia, to prepare them for the workforce with on-the-job experience, and to provide vital professional development opportunities and college readiness training. For eight weeks, fifty students are placed in paid positions at arts and culture organizations across the city. In addition, the entire cohort goes on weekly site visits to many of Philadelphia’s most iconic arts and culture institutions. Finally, the cohort attends day-long weekly professional development and college readiness training.
