In the past several weeks we’ve received a couple new museum opportunities we’d like to share with our network.
2016 Summer Internships at Alaskan Museums:
The Alaska State Museum (ASM) is continuing to coordinate summer internships at small museums and Tribal cultural centers throughout Alaska. These 8 week summer internships will begin in late May or early June and will encompass one or more of the following areas: collections management, exhibit development, collections database management, and collections research. Although the project sites are at small museums with volunteer or limited professional staffing, there will be ongoing supervision by the ASM Curator of Museum Services. Applications should be emailed to scott.carrlee@alaska.gov by Friday, February 5. See the linked flyer for more information: Alaskan summer Internships 2016.
