Internship Application
Student interns can earn course credit while deeply engaging with works of art to see that they are safely stored, documented, and digitized in accordance with best practices. Interns will develop practical museum skills, such as accessioning objects, assisting in curating and organizing exhibitions, and working with TMS, the standard collection management software for museums across the country.

We welcome applicants from all fields of study and all levels. The successful applicant may earn 1, 2, or 3 credit hours of ARTH 397/497, or they may arrange to be given credit in another major or area at the discretion of the department.
Honors Experiential Learning Requirement:
Internships at the Madison Art Collection can be applied towards the Experiential Learning Requirement for the Honors Minor.
Honors Capstone Project and The Madison Art Collection:
Honors students may propose an Honors Capstone Project using the Madison Art Collection or the Lisanby Museum. Because these projects require three (3) semesters to complete, interested Honors students are encouraged to discuss this possibility during their sophomore year.
You can apply in the weeks leading up to Spring and Fall enrollment season. Questions about the application process? Contact Dr. Maria Harvey at harveymx@jmu.edu
