Mission

BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) is a multi-arts center located in Brooklyn, New York. For more than 150 years, BAM has been the home for adventurous artists, audiences, and ideas—engaging both global and local communities. BAM Education connects learning with creativity, engaging imagination by encouraging self-expression through in- and after-school programs for students and teachers; school-break workshops; and offerings for audiences of all ages.

Activities

High school juniors develop college readiness and gain real-world work experience over the course of a year and a half in this paid internship program at BAM. Over the course of the program participants gain valuable skills, like creating a resume, having a successful job interview, and public speaking and presentation skills. Interns participate in weekly career development workshops, work under the supervision of a BAM employee in BAM’s administrative offices, receive one-on-one mentoring, and attend Q&A lunches with executive staff. Additional professional development will be provided offsite at the Manhattan law offices of Proskauer and Rose LLP.
