Creative Access: Securing internships in the creative sector

In this Culture Bar Podcast, we talk to current and past interns of HarrisonParrott who went through the Creative Access process, a company that enables people from communities under-represented in the creative industries to access careers, progress and reach leadership. We ask our panellists for advice on how to secure an internship, how they found the whole process and what they are hoping to achieve or have achieved following the internship.  

In this informative conversation, we are thrilled to be joined by five wonderful panellists:

Alisha Kaur is currently our Accounts Assistant but started at HarrisonParrott as an Accounts Assistant Intern.

Kaya Brown originally started as an intern for touring and artist management. Now she works in the HR department as HR and Operations Coordinator.

Mia Musa-Green is currently our Intern Artist Coordinator for the vocal team.

Matthew Law started working at HarrisonParrott as an Artist Coordinator Intern, then stayed as a permanent staff as an Artist Coordinator.

Lucy Madaras was also an Artist Coordinator Intern at HarrisonParrott.

This episode is hosted by HP’s Lauren O'Brien.
