Overview
Art Farm's program for interns offers farmhouse accommodation and a small workspace to pursue their artwork. We ask for 25 hours assistance per week from interns to help renovate and maintain Art Farm's buildings and grounds and assist the resident artists. Interns need to be self-motivated and resourceful and to appreciate a quiet working environment. Art Farm's location is semi-isolated and rural and because of this condition, co-operation and an ability to share tasks are required. Spend your summer participating in an artists' community. Develop new skills, live, work with artists from around the world, and work on your own art projects, on a farm in rural Nebraska.

Art farm requests...
