KIRKLAND ARTS CENTER
Volunteers & Interns
Volunteers are the core of the Kirkland Arts Center. KAC welcomes
volunteers of all interests and backgrounds to learn and interact
with artists, educators and other volunteers in a fun, informal and
educational environment.
Interns are valuable temporary employees at KAC. Each summer we offer one or more
internships for college students, or recent graduates, to explore a field of interest,
share skills and knowledge, and learn about the inner workings of a busy non-profit
arts organization. Internships are often project focused and oriented toward a
particular career path. Interning at KAC provides opportunities to gain tangible
experience and make contacts with working professionals.
