Objetivo: Since 1964 the National Gallery of Art has offered professional museum training to candidates from all backgrounds through a variety of internship programs. Nine-week summer internships provide opportunities to work on projects directed by a Gallery curator or department head. Biweekly museum seminars introduce interns to the broad spectrum of museum work, and to Gallery staff, departments, programs, and functions. New in 2020, interns will engage with museum visitors by developing and leading public tours in the galleries. At the beginning of the summer, interns will participate in an intensive training about gallery teaching. They will learn how to talk with visitors about original works of art in the galleries in a way that is relevant, engaging, and accessible. Interns then develop tours that incorporate their own interests and offer visitors an insider perspective on the National Gallery of Art and its collection.
