University of Rochester ArtNY Program
Art New York
Art New York is an internship program for students (excluding first year students) from any field or department at the University. Participants live in New York City while completing an internship at a prestigious art, media, or cultural institution. They also take two classes to complete a full 16-credit semester.
Classes in NYC
Students are immersed in the incredible expanse of cultural production that NYC holds. In one class, students learn about new media culture and new media production, while in the other they view, reading about, and discuss different forms of contemporary art, new media, video, and film.
