If you think in short copy form and love to get the right information to the right people at the right time in the right way, then the marketing internship is for you. You are excited to figure out how best to position a dance artist or company to maximize exposure and fill theatres to capacity with enthusiastic audience members.
You are highly detail-oriented and excel at proofreading and editing. You are able to work effectively in a group of your peers and with multiple supervisors, can clearly articulate your thoughts and questions, and are naturally inclined to step up and help out on short notice. New software and technology is a cinch for you to learn and you're always thinking of new and more efficient ways to produce work. You understand how to use Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Flickr, and may have some experience with Adobe software (specifically Photoshop and Lightroom). You are available for the full length of the summer internship and will arrive excited and ready to tackle the job.
Marketing Intern projects may include:
To apply for the Marketing Internship, please submit the required form, resume, cover letter, references, and the following two writing samples. Applications submitted without these writing samples are considered incomplete.

2. Pick a different Festival 2013 artist and write 80 words of copy for a postcard to be mailed to ticket buyer homes, enticing them to see the performance. Again, keep in mind tone, voice, and target. Click here for an example of a Jacob's Pillow postcard.
