Whitney Museum of American Art

Summer Intern

June - August 2022 • New York City, NY

What I liked

My team, the education team, was such a supportive space. We talked a lot about the nature of art museums and the issues museums as institutions faced which was really cool.

What I wish was different

I wish it was a bit longer, I feel like by the time I adjusted to working 9-5, it was over.

Advice

Be flexible! being on the education team means both being on your feet and running admin tasks, while also working on a research project.
