Available Positions

Art Monastery Project Looking to Fill Two Roles

• Marketing Intern / Presidential Assistant (full time, dates flexible)
• Work-Trade Helpers (part time, dates flexible)

We are looking for energetic, hardworking musicians, artists, craftspeople, and stage managers to trade work for a shared room (low season) or private tent (high season) at our beautiful monastery in Labro, the headquarters of our intentional art community.

In addition to an unforgettable work experience, there are many pleasures awaiting everyone who comes to stay with us. Participate, if you wish, in daily meditations and meals with inspiring visionaries. There will be time to enjoy wifi, excursions, performances, and all that the Italian countryside has to offer. Check out the Calendar to see which workshops, symposia, exhibitions, performances and artist residencies will be going on during your stay. We pride ourselves in our exceptional Italian and world cuisine, and we are happy to offer vegetarian options. Please let us know of your other special dietary needs.

If your heart goes aflutter when you imagine living amongst artists and intentional, contemplative thinkers, please contact info@artmonastery.org.

Work-Trade Helpers

We are looking for energetic dreamers to trade part-time work for a shared room in the monastery in the low season or your own tent in the high season.

We are seeking 2 to 3 workers to trade behind-the-scenes support of our art projects (theatrical performances, concerts in a wide range of musical styles, art installations, and more!) in the roles of stage manager, lighting technician, administrative assistant, marketing assistant, and assistant chef. If you have artistic and building skills, please send us your portfolio — we would love help creating intricate hand-painted signs, a shade structure, bookshelves, and art installations. If you have musical or theater skills, send us samples of your work and we will consider your participation in performances from time to time.

After your work each day, you are free to explore the countryside, make a day trip to Rome, Rieti, Assisi, or Spoleto, hike, hang out with the artists & other volunteers, or develop your art projects.

You can share a room in our lovely monastery or pitch your tent on the grounds. We ask that you stay with us for one week, with the option to extend your stay after you’ve been with us and gotten a feel for the place.

To see if we have space available for work-trade helpers, please contact Betsy McCall at volunteers@artmonastery.org or +39 333.153.7353.
