Internship at Missouri Historical Society

Summer Conservation Internship
Missouri Historical Society

The Missouri Historical Society in St. Louis is accepting
applications from graduate conservation students for a 10-week
(paid) summer conservation internship.  Applications from advanced
undergraduate conservation students are also encouraged.

Application deadline is April 15, 1997.

The conservation intern will work in the objects conservation lab,
assisting the conservator with the preparation of a wide range
objects for a major exhibition scheduled to open in the fall of
1999.  The internship is open to students who may not yet have
decided on an area of specialization, and also to those who may have
already established an area of focus.  This is a perfect opportunity
for students to gain excellent practical experience in a fast-paced
and intense history-museum setting!
