All About Kids!

The von Liebig Art Center offers a popular ARTScool summer education program, and a fun family event called Nuts About The von Liebig each February. In addition, children of all ages can enjoy our exhibitions and art festivals.

ARTScool Internship Program

We are excited to offer volunteer internships for our eight (8) week ARTScool program which takes place during June, July and August.  These internships are designed for students from age 14–17 years.  This opportunity allows the student to work and learn in an Art Center environment and earn volunteer (community service) hours. 

ARTScool is our summer program for youth ages 4 to 14.   We provide a variety of art classes with a professional teaching staff.   The Intern helps to administer ARTScool and is considered part of the Staff under the supervision of the Teachers, Head Interns, and Director of Education.

Requirements for Internship:

  • Age requirement – 14 to 17 years old.
  • Must commit to 2 weeks; 80 hours of work.
  • Parental Permission required.
  • Recommendation from Teacher required.
  • Personal Interview.

ARTSCool Description of Daily Routine:

Interns begin the day at 8:30 AM and work until 4:30 PM, Monday through the Friday.

Two fifteen minute breaks are given during the day.  All interns supervise and have lunch with students in Cambier Park between noon and l:00 PM.

Interns are given specific assignments and are constantly monitored.  Some of their assignments are:

  • Aiding Teachers in the classrooms with students.
  • Providing supervision of students (i.e. lunch, break-time)
  • Distribution of art supplies in accordance with instructor’s wishes
  • Helping to oversee classroom management
  • Assuring children are released to a parent or an authorized adult at the end of the day.

Completed Internships:

Upon completion of the internship, Interns receive the following:

  • Certificate of Completion which can be used in college applications.
  • One year free membership to The von Liebig Art Center.
