That means that people, companies and organizations have come together to build new pathways to sustainable creative careers (starting with Multimedia Producers and Digital Video Editors). It means that unpaid internships should be a thing of the past. It means access to professional, on-the-job training, even if you have not attended college. It means that the media industry can say yes to one-on-one mentorship and equitable, diverse workplaces. Arts2Work means that the next generation of creative producers, editors, and storytellers will be able to change the rules of the game.
Arts2Work is more than a jobs program. We are growing an inclusive culture of apprenticeship where creative workers and employers are accountable to one another in an environment of mutual respect and inclusion. We are building a world where every movie and TV show, every radio program, video game and VR experience, every organization with a footprint in the digital world – is mentoring an Arts2Work Apprentice, who is rocking their new job.
A growing national program
