Education: Student Guide Internship

The Student Guide program trains college and graduate students to lead innovative tours of the Museum's collections and exhibitions, and to assist with Museum public programs. Students develop critical thinking and communication skills while sharing their fresh and diverse perspectives with Museum visitors.

During this yearlong commitment, volunteer Student Guides:

Student Guides commit to working between seven and ten hours per week, which includes meetings on Wednesday evenings and Saturdays during the academic year, as well as independent research in the Museum galleries. Meetings begin in early October each year, and applications are due at the end of September. This is an unpaid volunteer position. Academic credit can be arranged.

To apply, please send a copy of your résumé along with the completed application form.
