About the 12-Month Internship Program

Full-time, 12-month internships with stipends are offered for recent college graduates interested in pursuing a museum career. The focused departmental training is integrated with the fall, spring, and summer lecture series and complemented with financial provisions for the interns to create a research trip related to their field of interest. Additionally, monthly activities are designed specifically for this cohort to receive greater exposure to the museum and art fields.

Curatorial Department Interns will be a part of a larger cohort of interns from various MoMA departments. Twelve-month internships provide training in specific museum fields through close work with professional staff members, familiarity with modern and contemporary art through seminars and discussions, and an educational program that exposes interns to the workings of the Museum as a whole, while considering the role of museums in the broader cultural context.

The ideal candidate should have demonstrated experience with and interest in research and writing within Art History or a similar discipline. Candidates should be confident, organized, articulate, and professional. Proficiency in Microsoft Word and PowerPoint is required, as is the ability to perform basic functions in Excel. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are critical. Must be detail-oriented and conscientious and have the ability to multitask.

Each Intern will be placed into a different curatorial department based on need, areas of interest and experience. Applicants will be asked to list a preference during the application process but candidates may be considered for departments other than their first preference.
