We’ve had a multiple emails come in this year re: internship opportunities at Monochrome Magazine. So we’ve decided to look into it and design a program that works for both you and us.
Our aim for the program is to host young creators and writers for 3 months, introduce them to the industry and how it works, offer practical skills and send them into the world with some skills, knowledge and experience.
In turn creators would bring fresh ideas and value to the magazine.
We intend to work directly with UNAM’s Visual Arts Department as well The College of The Arts. We know industry related attachments are necessary in preparing students for the real world. We’re here to help you build your portfolio and introduce you to key industry players, markets and potential employers.
We are also extending the opportunity to creatives who are not at any of these institutions who wish to intern for the magazine.
Please note that this internship is unpaid. Should that change, we will inform you, as we believe in paying creatives for their work. We are working strongly on turning Unpaid to Paid.
If interested, continue reading, as we have identified different posts you can apply for.
