The Department of Arts and Culture is releasing a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) to establish a Prequalified List of community-based organizations capable of providing comprehensive support and services for rising public high school seniors participating in an eight (8)-week paid summer internship program.

Regional Hub Partners will provide services that include, but are not limited to, hosting a cohort of 10 student interns at a dedicated physical space, implementing a curriculum of workshops to prepare students for college and career success, curating and implementing excursions to arts and cultural organizations in LA County, providing mentorship, highlighting careers in the creative sector, promoting arts and culture as a community resource, supporting outreach and recruitment, and building a strong alumni network.

This Prequalified List will remain active for three years with an option to extend the list for up to two additional three-year terms. Organizations that are interested and qualified are strongly encouraged to apply.
