For this internship, I am working at St. Mark's English Church in Florence, Italy. At Salem College, we are required to do an internship and I'm doing mine during our Jan term - the month of January. Even though I was not required to do a internship in music, I wanted to get something in that field because music is my major. Kate, a friend of mine in the music department, had done a similar internship. She gave me the information about the organization called Performing Arts Abroad which is associated with Florence University of the Arts. I am also taking an Italian class as part of my internship.
St. Mark's is unique and has been hosting opera in the church for 11 years. Saint Mark's is part of an old Medici Palace that was owned by Machiavelli and has been renovated in a neo-renaissance style with beautiful icons. The church is also an important venue for Firenze Lirica, a well-established Florentine society for the promotion of operatic performance and study.

This January, the opera program is Love Duets from famous operas. I am assisting with preparations before the performances and hosting activities during the event.
