Looking back on Summer 2023

This summer marked the fifth year of the Diversity in the Arts Internship Program, and it was filled with the creativity and growth that DITA is all about. From organizing kid's camps to teaching the art of zine-making to learning graphic design, our interns had a whirlwind summer at 8 host sites throughout the metro area. You can read about their experiences below, and join us in wishing them well in all their future endeavors! We're thrilled to have these creative young leaders sharing their skills with communities near and far.

The 2023 cohort takes a moment to be silly during the DITA workshop hosted by Rainbow Dome.
