  • Website back end updates and maintenance

  • Event related gallery tasks (printing didactic materials, gallery attendant, etc...)

This internship would be quite hands-on and involve skill building in the tasks outlined above. This internship can be tailored to a student's specific interests and would be a great step to working in gallery and creative event spaces. Our focus is to create an inclusive environment that fosters creativity and builds on real-world skills in the creative industries.

    - Interacting with artists, clients, and public in a professional manor

  • Networking opportunities directly into the local Brisbane arts community

The internship will commence in February 2021 and will continue until June 2021. And will result in varying amounts of work 1-2 days a week. After June KEPK will take into consideration extending the internship. At this stage it is unpaid, however as KEPK grows we aim to make this a paid position.
