experience in--the profession of museum education at a mid-sized museum 
of natural history, history, anthropology, and art. The Monticello 
Intern plans and implements the Museum’s monthly children’s program

Super Saturday volunteers and helps with the Museum’s hands-on 
children’s exhibition, the Mary Ann MacLean Play Museum. Requirements: a 
Bachelor's degree in education, anthropology, natural science, museum 
studies, history, or art; career interest in museum education; and

experience with volunteers and children are a plus. Computer skills in 
word processing, database management, and desktop publishing are 
preferred. Flexibility, maturity, reliability, dedication, strong 
organizational and communication skills, and a commitment to being a 
team player are very important. The internship will run from September 
1, 2014 to August 31, 2015. There is a monthly salary of $1,700 (subject
