The Artsicle Blog

It’s a new year, we have two new members of the team, & we’re growing – fast. If you have been a fan of what we’re building, read below for details on two internship roles available immediately. We’d love to have you join us!

Who are we? 

Artsicle is a company on a mission to make art accessible for everyone while also improving the lives of today’s artists. We like to think we’re one of the hottest new tech companies in NYC. Are you ready to bring art out of the box and on to walls everywhere? Are you ready to put artists back on top?

We believe “art changes people, people change the world” – help us change the world!

What’s in it for you? Any cool perks? 

Artsicle interns will learn about startup life, tech, the art world, and what it means to build something. You’ll be exposed to a ton of other great startups, mentors, investors. You’ll visit artist’s studios, stop by gallery openings, and help build something world changing. You can build new skills and develop a portfolio of real work. And we think you’ll have fun, too.

You’ll have a very flexible schedule and can often work from anywhere (minimum of 5 hours/wk). Internships are unpaid but we are able to offer college credit. Should the internship extend to longer than one quarter, we will pay our interns hourly.

So you’re interested? Here’s how you can apply: 

Rad. Read the descriptions below and send an email to intern@artsicle.com with answers to these two questions & which role you’re interested in. We don’t need a resume – we just want to hear why you’re a great fit. Be sure to mention any special skills, great ideas, funny stories, favorite bourbons.
