Gibney Dance offers the opportunity to earn free dance classes with some of the field’s most exciting teachers while gaining exposure to a fast-paced arts-administration environment. Through ongoing managerial support and feedback, as well as other professional development activities, our internship program strives to provide the next generation of arts and non-profit leaders the skills and knowledge necessary to advance the most pressing issues facing their chosen fields today.

 

All interns represent Gibney Dance during normal operating hours at both of the company’s 890 Broadway and 280 Broadway locations, as well as at the organization’s programs and events. We offer a friendly and fun, yet focused environment where individuals come to work and build their careers. As such, we look for individuals who demonstrate:

 

- maturity and professionalism

- strong ability to work both independently and as part of a team

- willingness to take ownership of responsibilities and projects

- adherence to core Gibney Dance values, including respect, self-expression, collaboration, innovation, and entrepreneurship

 

The Class and Rentals Internship focuses on developing a unique skillset centered around professional customer service, and includes training in software such as MindBody, Quickbooks, and InDesign. Interns work alongside Gibney Dance staff and personnel to gain hands-on experience in the daily operations of our vibrant performing arts center.

 

The Class and Rental Internships (CRI) require a 4-month commitment of 16/18 hours per week. Exceptions may be made for academic credit. CRIs receive a small monthly honorarium, unlimited Contemporary Forms classes, and 2 classes per week in the Resident Ballet Program.
