The Arlington Historical Society offers internships to college students or recent graduates with an interest in museum work. Interns will have the opportunity to learn about a variety of museum duties and may have the opportunity to focus on a project of particular interest. Areas of potential work include collections (art, history, and natural history), publishing/photography/graphic design, research, oral history, or other aspects of museum operations (including communications, fund-raising, marketing, technology, event planning, etc.).

Intern hours and schedules are flexible to meet the needs of students and academic credit requirements, although interns are expected to work at least 4 hours per week for a minimum of ten weeks. To apply, send resume and letter of interest detailing availability, total or weekly hours requested/required, and area of specific interest, if any.
