CAS has internships available at the Jaipur Literature Festival!Ā
Jaipur Literature Festival is a sumptuous feast of ideas and has been described as the āgreatest literary show on Earth'. In the last decade it hasĀ transformed into a global literary phenomenon, hosting nearly 2000 speakers and welcoming over a million book lovers from across India and the globe.The festivalās core values remain unchanged; to serveĀ as a democratic, non-aligned platform offering free and fair access. Every year, the Festival brings together a diverse mix of the worldās greatest writers, thinkers, humanitarians, politicians, business leaders, sports people and entertainers on one stageĀ to champion the freedom to express and engage in thoughtful debate and dialogue.
ForĀ the past four years the greatest literary show on Earth has made a second home in Boulder, CO bringing all the color, magic, emotion and conversations with it. And for its fifth year in Colorado, we are looking to integrate local creative minds to help tellĀ its story and to build a more meaningful footprint in the US. We will be taking on interns with a background or interest in PR & Marketing as well as big storytellers in different aspects of media and visualĀ content. It is not a qualification for them to be a Communications major - but anyone who has a passion for literature, bringing together thought provoking and interesting ideas, globalization, and breaking barriers yet with the awesome talents of tellingĀ a brand story in different ways. The timeframe for our posted positions are March 1st - September 30th. The bulk of the work will fall throughout the summer and into the full month of September. Festival dates for 2019 are 9/20-9/22. So interns should notĀ plan to be out of town during these dates.Ā
Course credit may be available through Asian Studies, emailĀ cas@colorado.eduĀ with questions.
