Hello,
I am a museum studies graduate student and I was wondering when most museums will resume in person curatorial internships? I am aware that many curatorial internships are less involved and programming is reduced in capacity because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and many internships are virtual now. I want to apply for a credited internships, and I am looking for a full, hands-on curatorial experience in a museum so I am actually benefiting for a future career as much as possible.

Hi Erik,

Our Museum resumed in-person internships this fall. We're currently accepting applications for summer 2020; more info at https://www.ashevilleart.org/about/careers/intern/.
