Graphic Design Intern-Summer 25

Company Information

RG Barry Brands is a leading developer and marketer of fashionable, functional accessories. We introduced the original foam-cushioned slipper in 1947, and today our flagship Dearfoams® brand slippers and baggallini® handbags and travel accessories are sold through most retail channels. While our growing brand portfolio, unique understanding of the accessories retailer and consumer and long history of innovation and design excellence are important, the real secret of our success lies in attracting, developing and energizing the very best people.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, hard-working, and passionate graphic design intern to join our creative team in our Columbus office. An interest in fashion and retail is essential, as is a positive, can-do attitude. This is a hands-on internship that provides the opportunity to work directly with the creative team on both of RG Barry’s brands: Dearfoams and baggallini. You will work on both digital and print projects to gain a thorough understanding of the graphic design needs at a retail company. Day-to-day tasks will largely focus on executing creative concepts. The skills you hone here will be featured in a collaborative project developed throughout the 12-week duration of the internship program.
