Fall 2021 Internships

The Asheville Art Museum is excited to offer the following internship opportunities this summer:

FALL 2021: Priority application deadline July 1; to learn more, please visit https://www.ashevilleart.org/about/careers/intern/
  • Communications - Multimedia Storytelling
  • Curatorial - Collections Management
  • Learning & Engagement
  • Visitor Research & Evaluation

As part of its longstanding education program, the Museum’s internship program aims to give interns real-world experience and insight so that their transition from student to professional is supported, informed, and encouraged. This goal is achieved by:
  • Providing current undergraduate and graduate students, as well as recent graduates (within one year of graduation) and high-school students, opportunities to collaborate with Museum staff on projects related to the arts, arts education, and arts administration
  • Introducing interns to the broad spectrum of museum work and to Museum staff, departments, programs, and operations

Interns are an integral part of the Museum’s community, helping staff and visitors in many ways. In addition, the Museum seeks to reach underserved populations that have limited access to arts and professional-development opportunities in the arts.

Internships are offered during the summer, spring, and fall semesters, and during the academic year. Internships are available most semesters in each department of the Museum—Communications, Curatorial, Development, Learning & Engagement, and Museum Store & Visitor Services—and occasionally for special projects. Please see our openings at https://www.ashevilleart.org/about/careers/intern/ for specific information about available internships.

The Museum offers both paid and volunteer internships; see individual internship descriptions, as well as descriptions of the UNC Asheville and Rosemary Kennedy Internship Initiatives at https://www.ashevilleart.org/about/careers/intern/. The Museum regularly coordinates with schools, colleges, and universities to ensure academic credit is received by current students.
