Plug In ICA Announces New Summer Intern

POSTED ON July 13, 2023

Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art is delighted to announce a new addition to our team for the summer. Please join us in welcoming Ela Wasney, our Education and Public Programming Intern.

Ela Wasney (she/they), is a Treaty-1 based multidisciplinary artist, who is working to complete their BFA (Honours) this coming academic year. They have a focus on sculpture, specifically concerning objects and the ready-made. Thematically Ela works with consumerism, popular media, and the aesthetics of cute.

As the Education and Public Programming Intern, Ela will participate in a broad range of activities that include various aspects of running a contemporary art gallery, museum or institute, as well as research, writing and administration.

We are excited to have Ela join our team this summer!

This is a paid internship opportunity funded in part by Young Canada Works through the Canadian Museums Association.
