The New Jersey State Council on the Arts has partnered with Americans for the Arts on the Diversity in Arts Leadership (DIAL) Internship program.
Last year, as the first statewide partner, the Council paired interns with arts organizations in central and northern New Jersey. This year's cohort will be based in South Jersey.
DIAL matches undergraduate students from backgrounds traditionally untapped for arts leadership with dynamic communities, energetic host arts organizations, and business mentors, to guide students' personal and professional growth throughout the summer. In 2020, the nationwide, competitive selection process will grant five full-time, paid, ten-week-long internships in New Jersey.

The Council was established to encourage and foster public interest in the arts; enlarge public and private resources devoted to the arts; promote freedom of expression in the arts; and facilitate the inclusion of art in every public building in New Jersey. The Council receives direct appropriations from the State of New Jersey through a dedicated, renewable Hotel/Motel Occupancy fee, as well as competitive grants from the National Endowment for the Arts.
