Creative work experience, paid.
Rising Creatives is designed to help high school students gain exposure to creative workplaces and develop professional experience through partnerships with local organizations.
In the planned model, host organizations provide the workplace experience and SAF coordinates the program and pays participating interns directly, so the opportunity is open to students who can't afford to work for free.
Details may change as the program is developed. This page will be updated as plans are confirmed.
