THE BMA!!! the Brooklyn Museum of Art offers a 10month, full time
internship in Museum Education that carries a small (but relatively
decent) stipend and now also offers health insurance (it didn't when i
was there). this was one of the most valuable experiences i have had,
and i can thoroughly recommend both the internship and the department.
 
feel free to get in contact if you have more questions

Subject: Resource for....



Hello,

I have been on this list for years....but this is the first time I have
actually written. I would like to say that this list has been most
helpful for me, as I have been finishing up my undergraduate degree and
now am searching for museum work.....I am trying to see what I can do to
gain experience without a master's/Ph.D.....which leads me to my
question. Does anyone know of a resource where I may find opportunities
for experience in museum work....abroad or here in the states...where
one does not have to have more than a Bachelor's + tons of small jobs in
museums and galleries....and by opportunities, I mean along the lines of
a fellowship/grant experience/internship that provides a small stipend.
I am currently in Boston and looking for work in a museum/gallery (my
focus is modern and contemporary american art....paiting....design)but
am almost willing to go anywhere at this point....or should I just go to
grad school, though I was planning on my experiences now to help me
focus in on what it is exactly about art/museums that I want to
study.....ok, any advice?

THANKS :)   -Bess Paupeck
