A Guide to Fine Arts Internships Abroad
Prepare for an Internship
Set goals
Setting out to learn more about art and fine arts can be incredibly eye-opening. Don’t forget to set out with at least some goals like these!
- Push your boundaries by being open to new or unfamiliar art forms and having a more expansive view of your field.
- Consider and try new projects that you haven’t worked on before to explore the possibilities of different paths.
- On a personal, and soft skill level, work on personal aspects to grow as a person and employee.

Understand the benefits
- Exposure to various cultural art standards. There are different art styles anywhere you go, working within them can make you better and be more accessible to more people without sacrificing your style.

- Invaluable hands-on experience. The art world is competitive, and having professional international experience can help you in your career pursuits.
- Practice your craft and grow your portfolio. Does it even need explaining?

- Accommodations - Some programs may offer housing while others don’t—make sure to check for it either way.
- Cost of living - The expenses of countries are another important thing to know. Make a budget and stick to it.
- Culture - Being aware of and open to the inevitable cultural differences! It’s the best way to get out of your internship.
