The New York Arts Program has one of the most impressive networks of sponsors than any other urban arts internship program. Our sponsors don’t come from generic online databases. Each sponsor has been carefully culled and screened by the New York Arts Program faculty to insure that they provide the best possible learning experience for you.
We are committed to your undergraduate education and your exploration and development of career options and opportunities as an artist.
