Internships at the Arden

The Dr. Mindy Goldberg Rose Internship Fund was founded in 2022 to honor the life of longtime Arden friend Dr. Mindy Goldberg Rose, and her commitment to education, the arts, and making lives better.

About the Program

Over the years, fostering the next generation of theatre professionals through real world experience has been at the center of the Arden’s endeavors. The Goldberg Rose Internship program is designed to offer students and emerging theatre professionals the opportunity to learn new skills while being mentored by experienced theater professionals. This Fund will allow greater access to meaningful experiences, stronger connection to the larger network of theatre professionals and have a resonating impact on our work on stage.
