Ways to Get Involved

Become a Mentor

Inspire the next generation of leaders in art and design! Montserrat’s mentorship program pairs Montserrat students with an accomplished professional in their industry of choice for career coaching and mentoring for post-graduation success. Mentor/Mentee pairs meet every other week for a semester to help students set goals, determine next steps, and build their support network and creative community. In appreciation of work, mentors even have the option to receive a stipend in compensation for their time.

Hire an Intern

Bring our students’ talents to you! As a college dedicated to experiential learning, Montserrat students are required to complete at least one 90+ hour internship to graduate. Through this experience, they network and gain professional skills that will prepare them for employment. Internship hosts have come from a wide range of businesses and creative industries, from large corporate offices at TJX Companies looking for marketing help to freelance artists looking for studio assistants.

Attend or Volunteer at an Event

Come join the party! – Montserrat offers a wide range of events throughout the year, to celebrate with our greater community. While some are ticketed fundraisers, many are free and open to the public! We love connecting with friends of the college through these events either as attendees or as volunteers. Regularly scheduled events include intimate lectures and workshops as well as large blowout parties such as our annual fundraising auction- Artrageous!
