 Founded as a nonprofit educational corporation in 1958, the Monterey Jazz Festival-the longest running jazz festival in the world-is dedicated to perpetuating the uniquely American form of music known as jazz by producing performances that celebrate the legacy and expand the boundaries of jazz as well as producing year-round community, national and international jazz education programs.

Interns will have the opportunity to gain practical hands-on experience in Festival Production, Music Presentation as well as other departments including Development, Education, and Marketing. Positions are typically unpaid, but a small stipend may be available; college credit may be available – applicant should check with academic institution.
