- Become an active member of a creative team
- Receive real hands-on experience
- Enhance your resumé with a multicultural, educational project
- Network within the cultural arts community

Special considerations are history, marketing, visual media, filmmaking, and nonprofit management students. We invite you to become part of our team and connect with communities!
