Internships

River Styx is limiting internships during the COVID shutdown, but we do anticipate offering a few internships during Summer 2021. We will begin taking applications for those positions in February 2021 and will post an application link here at that time.

River Styx seeks interns who are interested in gaining editorial, publishing, design, marketing, and website maintenance experience.

Internships are unpaid and typically last for the duration of a fall, spring, or summer semester. We are happy to work within your school’s requirements if you wish to earn college credit for your internship.

Interns will experience firsthand how an independent literary journal and reading series host operates. In exchange, they receive free admission to readings, a subscription to River Styx, access to hundreds of exchange magazines, projects for their portfolios, networking opportunities with other literary and arts organizations, and valuable credentials to put on their resumes.

We most typically interview for summer internships in March; for fall internships in June; and for spring internships in October and November. However, you are welcome to apply at any time.

In the meantime, get to know us by checking out our history, our magazine, and our reading series.

If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail us at managingeditor@riverstyx.org.
