The St. Louis Artists’ Guild offers unpaid internships to assist students in gaining experience with a non-profit arts organization. Credit for hours worked can be arranged with individual colleges and universities. Supervision is provided.
It is important to the Guild that it provides internship opportunities for:
- Students interested in the arts
- Students wanting to gain experience with a local organization that has culturally supported the St. Louis community since 1886 - over 120 years.
- Grantsmanship Intern. This is an excellent opportunity for students who are knowledgeable and enjoy internet search engines and want to develop grant writing skills. Some travel to St. Louis City Library may be required. Supervision provided and credits arranged.

This opportunity includes updating mailing lists, listing the Guild on search engines, preparing workshop packets, etc. The position is available anytime during office hours and as often as you may like, but we would appreciate a minimum of 2 hours per shift.

Clean, Patch & Paint
The St. Louis Artists’ Guild closes every year in order to bring this beautiful 1929 stone house back to its glory. So many things to do, and so little time. This is the opportunity to bring a buddy, get a group together, or come and visit with old friends while helping make the Guild a gorgeous place to show artwork and be with friends. We are looking to schedule several specific days to complete all repairs, but we are more than willing to work with you to help us on other days as well.
Exhibit Help
We need a great group of dedicated people to help us with receiving and installing artwork and other tasks related to upcoming exhibits. Contact Davide Weaver at 314-727-6266 or dweaver@stlouisartistsguild.org to volunteer.
