Hello-- My timid contribution to this thread is my observation that almost every museum offers internships of one sort or another, and that the persistent student can find one to his or her liking, esp. if he/she does not insist upon payment. This comes from putting together (or trying to) a site on internships as part of my Web site, "Resources in Art History for Graduate Students" (http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~acd). In fact, I'd like to include a statement to that effect on the site--if this is wrong, please let me know. Thanks, Adrienne DeAngelis
