National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC
The National Gallery of Art offers approximately 20 summer internships
to candidates from all backgrounds who have completed at least an undergraduate
degree by June. Each intern’s project will be directed by a Gallery
curator or department head. Biweekly “orientation” sessions will
introduce interns to the broad spectrum of museum work through lectures
and tours given by the different curators and department heads. Placements
are available in many of the Gallery departments. Relevant departments
are the Gallery Archives, Photographic Archives, Slide Library, Curatorial
Records and Files, and Conservation.
