Summer Intern Plans​
AOTL will again have two interns this year from June through August to help with the day to day functions of your organization.

If you're a gallery-sitter, remember that the interns are there to help the gallery run smoothly. They're not sales clerks, but will assist with sales as needed and will help troubleshoot problems.

Interns have other responsibilities that change from day to day, depending on what's happening. They'll be assisting with workshop prep, social media promotion, newsletter content, Studio Tour prep, etc. 

Our job as volunteers is to be the bright, cheery and helpful face of Art of the Lakes!
