A day in the life...

A lot goes on here at Pyramid, but today we have a peek into a day at the studio from our intern's point of view. Enjoy these photos from Tuesday!

Be a Pyramid Atlantic Studio Intern!

Winter is just around the corner, and with it will come a 

new group of studio interns here at Pyramid Atlantic!

Our fall interns are having such a wonderful time here, 

we thought we would ask them about what a new intern could expect. Katelyn, Amanda, and Aly say:

"You might be a Pyramid Atlantic Studio Intern if..."

- You love prints, paper, ink, books, and the like...

- Learning new printmaking techniques makes you giddy.

- Helping run events such as our annual Upscale Yard Sale is your cup of tea.

- You'd brave the pouring rain to join the team at our Crafty Bastards booth.

- You collect found objects in anticipation of including them in art projects.

- Handmade paper gives you the warm fuzzies.

- Making handmade paper gives you soggy socks and soaking shoes.

- You're a hot foil stamping fool in the book bindery.

- You foresee yourself swapping art-making techniques with other studio-dwellers.

- You find yourself teaching a screenprinting class to a fun group of newbies.

- Documenting and blogging about your life as an intern makes you smile!

The deadline for our Winter Studio Internship is November 11th.

Learn more about the internship and how to apply here!
