ARTscope: TEEN COUNCIL

ARTscope: Teen Council​ is a high school internship program focusing on the visual arts as a resource for community, skill building, and creativity. In this 18-week program, Teen Council members learn about career paths in the arts from working artists, Parrish staff, and other art-adjacent institutions. Council members are responsible for engaging with each museum department, developing meaningful contributions to museum operations, and attending trips to off-site art facilities. Recognizing there are economic barriers for some teens who want to participate, all members are compensated for their time and work.

Applications are due Monday, October 5, 2026.
