The World's Largest Children's Museum Offers Amazing Internships!
(This is being posted to other lists, please excuse if duplicated :)

The Children's Museum of Indianapolis, the largest and fourth oldest
children's museum in the world, strives to offer the highest quality of
non-traditional learning opportunities.  The five-story brick museum
houses ten major galleries exploring the sciences, history, foreign
cultures, the arts, and the environment.  In 1996, it will host over
1.3 million visits and open three new major exhibitions.  The genius of
Alexander Calder will be explored in "Calder's Art: A Circus of
Creativity," ScienceWorks in the Dow Science Center takes science
education to a whole new level and the IWERKS CineDome Theater will
astound filmgoers.  There's something to interest all visitors and any
student looking for an internship.

The Children's Museum offers non-compensated internships  year-round to
qualified college students and recent graduates.  Interns are placed
primarily in the Education, Programs, Collections, Exhibit Production,
Marketing, Communications and Development departments.  Opportunities to work wi
th
the public, design and implement activities, develop future job skills
and discover the inner workings of a major musuem are abundant.  Students
from all majors and interests are encouraged to apply.  Many summer
positions are filled; however, fall internships are still available.

Coming Soon: Subsidized intern housing!  We are in the process of
developing a paid graduate fellowship program open to recent graduates
and graduate students.  We have two to offer in 1996:
1. Public Art- a candidate is being sought to teach children basic
photography and darkroom skills (6/96-8/96).  Will probably result in a
temporary exhibition.
2. Youth Speak Out-coordinate a temporary exhibition and work with
children to display creations of youth (9/96-1/96).  Apply now for both
positions.
