The Hunt Museum is currently seeking applications for 3 and 6-month unpaid internships in its award-winning Education and Public Programmes Department to commence in Dec 2014/January 2015 and Summer 2015. Shorter-term internships (3 months) are also available.
The Hunt Museum offers several internships throughout the year to students, recent graduates and early-career Museum professionals. Interns get hands-on experience in the day-to-day operation of The Hunt Museum's Education Department or Administration Department and have the opportunity to develop a project during the period of their internship under the supervision of department heads, Dr Dominique Bouchard, Hunt Museum Curator of Education and Outreach. Former Education and Public Programme interns at The Hunt have subsequently found employment at institutions including the British Museum (London), Lowry Arts Centre (Manchester), Bishop's Stopford Museum (UK), the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Waikato Museum, New Zealand.
We are currently seeking applications for the Education and Public Programmes Curatorial Internship.
Curatorial Internship - Education and Public Programmes (6 or 12 months)
Curatorial interns play a key role in the development of The Hunt's public programme, interpretation and education initiatives. Interns will have opportunities to gain experience in project management, programme development, interpretation, audience development, and digital media. Past interns have created films, helped curate exhibitions, create and manage festivals and events, contribute to interpretation, present their work at museum conferences and have even published articles on their work!
