Internship Agreement

I agree to give the staff at Frontline Arts a minimum of 2 weeks notice if I need to terminate my internship before the agreed-upon ending date. This includes for personal reasons/finding another job, etc. We will make exceptions only for emergency situations (family, health, moving, etc). Also please be courteous and give at least 48 hours notice for any sudden changes in schedule (once again, we will be considerate of emergency situations). FA will occasionally ask interns to work weeknights or weekends for classes/events as a departure from their normal schedule (not additional hours, but rather exchanged from normal weekday hours) and FA will give at least a week's notice for these requests. Please also give at least 48 hours if unable to work on that alternate agreed-upon day. I have read and understand the Internship Agreement (initial here:)

Liability Waiver:

As an official intern of FA, full use of the studio is granted for FREE, during the course of the internship (minus materials). Personal work time must be outside of official internship hours and scheduled through the Studio Director. If an intern has also successfully completed training for opening and closing of the building and proficiency on all equipment used, a code will also be given for access outside of business hours. These hours must also be scheduled through the Studio Director, and another liability form must be filled out at that time.. (S)he must also participate in the review and acceptance of studio use, safety and cleaning procedures as laid out by the instructor & Frontline Arts studio director, and obey all posted signage. I (the below-initialed) have read these policies and filled out this form to the best of my knowledge. Completion of this form releases Frontline Arts and its officers from any responsibility of accidents that may occur within the studio, including, but not limited to handling of the presses and heavy equipment, use of chemicals, solvents and inks. We are requiring all staff and studio users to comply to the rules of temperature checks, social distancing, wearing a mask indoors, disinfecting surfaces before and after use, and following all posted signage until COVID pandemic conditions change and we move beyond Stage 3 of reopening. These rules may change at any time, subject to CDC and NJ Department of Health regulations. Failure to comply with these rules will result in suspension of studio access. I have read and understand the studio use & liability waiver (initial here):

Code of Conduct

Frontline Arts (FA) is committed to maintaining an environment of courtesy, safety, respect and proper conduct among all associated with the organization, including students, instructors, staff, interns, volunteers, studio renters, exhibiting artists and visitors. Some guidelines are set out below, with additional policies distributed in other documents for specific uses of our studios. Failure to adhere to the guidelines below, as well as in any additional document issued by FA, may lead to the individual’s membership, access volunteer, board or employment status being terminated or being asked to leave the premises and not return to FA studios, events or workshops. Any criminal conduct will be reported to the police and prosecuted. FA does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, ancestry, age, religion or religious creed, disability, sex or gender, gender identity and/or expression, sexual orientation, military or veteran status, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal, state or local law. Nor does it tolerate behavior from others on FA’s premise that might violate such laws. FA has a zero-tolerance policy against threats or intimidation, stalking, bullying or verbal abuse, gestures of a violent or inappropriate nature, sexual harassment, physical assault, or any other behavior that creates a hostile environment. When using the studio, FA requires that individuals be kind and courteous to everyone, and follow the instructions issued by staff, teachers and studio assistants. Disruptive behavior that distracts from learning, art-making or the center’s day-to-day operations is not allowed. Those renting and using the studio, whether as staff, intern, class hours, or keyholder, advanced studio or studio artist are not allowed to use Frontline Arts’ facilities to conduct their own ongoing commercial business or instruction out of Frontline Arts (unless hired by FA as a contract printer or instructor, due to liability and insurance), but only to make their own personal work. ● For example, if teaching a student lesson or running a large-scale hired job in the FA studios (such as large quantities of posters, T-shirts, invitations, contract printing, etc) paid directly to them by an outside client, they must be running the job through FA (they are paid by FA as an employee and the client pays FA directly). Teaching a group of more than one must be fully booked through and pre-approved by FA at special rates. ● Every renter and user of the studio is expected to be honest whether they are executing any commercial or hired work in the studios. FA requires respect of the space by following all posted signage and verbal instruction. All safety rules and COVID disinfection rules MUST be followed, and it is recommended that studio users learn the potential hazards of all materials and processes used. Be mindful of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for any supplies used on the premises. Please note the following: ● Individuals should also familiarize themselves with locations and instructions for emergency showers, eye washes, first aid kits, fire extinguishers and emergency exits, as well as the proper disposal of potentially hazardous materials and proper use of disinfectants. ● FA is committed to making a continued effort to minimize contribution to pollution and waste, implementing sustainable practices whenever possible by both recycling and minimizing usage of petroleum-based products. ● More details on all disinfecting procedures, studio safety and usage are listed in the COVID guidelines & FA Studio Manual. FA is a weapons-free and drug-free facility. Alcohol is sometimes present at special events, but is otherwise not allowed in the studio while using equipment. Public intoxication is prohibited. Smoking is prohibited inside the building or within 25 feet of any entrance. Park in our parking lots at your own risk. FA is not responsible for any damage to vehicles. I have read and understand the Community Code of Conduct (initial here):
