Through annual internships and mentorships, Chamber Made fosters students, emerging and early career artists and arts workers.

We have welcomed undergraduate and postgraduate students from NIDA, Deakin University, the Victorian College of the Arts, and other institutions via their Music, Production, and Theatre departments and postgraduate students from the University of Melbourne Arts and Cultural Management program.

We also support emerging artists to shadow lead collaborating artists.

In The Room Internships

For each new work in development, Chamber Made offers an ‘in the room’ internship to an undergraduate student from the Victorian College of the Arts, NIDA, Deakin University, and other institutions studying dramaturgy, directing, interactive composition, sound design, or production. These hands-on internships offer budding artists and arts workers insights into unique collaborative cross-artform processes with some of  Victoria’s most accomplished artists.

“I have loved being a part of the room with you all and have learnt so much in my time there! I really appreciate all of the effort you went to include me in the development process, and the agency I had in the room. The skill of the creatives, the energy in the room and the work that was being created were all really inspiring.”

HQ Internships

Chamber Made offers internships to arts administration and cultural management students, who are given the opportunity to participate and contribute to the day-to-day operations of the company.

“Interning with Chamber Made was a wonderful introduction to the workings of a performing arts organisation. The team were welcoming and supportive and generously gave me the freedom to lead a project. This has equipped me with invaluable skills and boosted my passion for working in the arts. It is truly worth sending through an email and seeing what is possible!”
