Charlton Park Foundation Intern

The Charlton Park Foundation intern will have several opportunities during their time at Historic Charlton Park.

·        Participate in collections inventory and cataloging projects, which include photographing, researching, rehousing and computerizing artifacts in Past Perfect Museum software.

·        Plan and develop a display for the public, based on their collections inventory project. This display is not intended to be a deep examination of the intricacies of the chosen collection, but an opportunity to showcase a grouping of artifacts and discuss as a whole.

·        They will work as a historic interpreter during our educational programming for elementary students. The intern will undergo interpreter training and shadow the Curator and Education Coordinator before their first presentation.

·        Assist in all areas of event set up and operation, present on site during required weekend events.

The intern will have a modest budget to complete the display project, and will be responsible for completing the project prior to the end of their internship. The intern will be required to submit a written proposal before beginning their project, and a summary report at the end of the 12 weeks.
