Participating interns are encouraged to both explore their interests and expand their skill sets based on host organizations needs.  Schedules are flexible to accommodate other responsibilities beyond this internship.

Interns are supported to work with TCA, directly with a partnering organization, and as part of an arts corp that can support various events in Taos. This is a paid opportunity with work responsibilities.

Every year, the cohort numbers and partner’s network expand to better include and support youth in Taos. Interested in joining? Email Anna Forster-Smith at anna@tcataos.org. We will be glad to hear from you!
