2025–26 Internships

Thank you for your interest in an internship at the Wexner Center for the Arts. Applications for the positions listed below are now being accepted!

All interns participate in a center-wide internship cohort. To support this cohort, the Department of Learning & Public Practice offers professional development sessions and gatherings that interns are expected to attend. We welcome feedback on the internship program as a whole and seek to foster a collaborative and generative environment for all interns.

The Wexner Center for the Arts is The Ohio State University’s multidisciplinary, international laboratory for the exploration and advancement of contemporary art. The Wexner Center values diversity and offers a supportive, open, and inclusive community. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, ancestry, color, disability, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, genetic information, HIV/AIDS status, military status, national origin, race, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, pregnancy, protected veteran status, or any other basis under the law.

Candidates must be at least 18 years of age. Wex internships are open to

students currently enrolled in a college or university (graduating seniors, graduate students, and international students are welcome),
recent high school or university graduates (1 to 3 years post completion), and
emerging professionals with less than 5 years of experience in the arts and culture or nonprofit fields.

Compensation: Pay range is $13 to $14 per hour. The offer will fall within this range based on the available budget, the selected candidate’s qualifications, and internal equity.
