Summer 2016 paid Internship Program
The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida, will be offering paid internships to be held for ten weeks, from June 6 – August 12. The Ringling is part of Florida State University and serves as the State Art Museum of Florida. Located on a 66-acre site overlooking Sarasota Bay, it consists of an art museum, circus museum, historic home, theater, and research library.
Summer internships at the Ringling combine practical, hands-on experience working on a project for a specific department with exposure to all aspects of the Museum’s operation.
The internships are in the following departments:
- Archives
- Collections Management
- Curatorial (Exhibitions)
- Education
- Library
- Visitor Services
Interns earn $11.25 per hour (less taxes) and are paid bi-weekly. Interns are responsible for their own housing (the Museum will assist with locating nearby rentals).
International applicants must have a current US Visa and be eligible to work in the US. The positions require fingerprinting. The Museum encourages students from all backgrounds to apply and is committed to a culturally diverse group.
Education requirements, additional information and application materials may be found on the Museum’s website at https://www.ringling.org/internships-fellowships.
The application deadline is February 15, 2016.
