The Lar Lubovitch Dance Company is seeking aspiring arts administrators and dance makers to intern this fall as we prepare for our historical 50th Anniversary season. This season will include a series of live-streamed lecture/demonstrations, fund-raising performances and events, and our New York season at the Joyce Theater. Previous interns have gone on to work at institutions such as Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, New York Chamber Music Society, Dance Magazine and here, at the Lubovitch company.  Internships are unpaid, but we offer college credit where applicable.  Interns working more than 25 hours a week may be provided with a pre-paid metro card for the duration of the internship.
