Summer 2026 Internships at the Lee-Fendall House Museum & Garden

The Lee-Fendall House Museum & Garden offers hands-on internship opportunities for students and recent graduates interested in gaining experience in the museum field. Summer 2026 internships will run from June to September (dates are flexible), and provide practical experience in collections management, museum education, and historical research.

We are offering three internship opportunities:

  • Collections Management Intern – Assist with collections care, cataloging, and a primary project digitizing museum paperwork.
  • Museum Education Intern – Support public programs, lead tours, enhance social media engagement, and digitize past temporary exhibitions for the museum website.
  • Research & Interpretation Intern – Conduct historical research on the 18th-century history of the house and assist with digitizing the museum’s historical book.

Interns will gain valuable experience working closely with museum staff, develop practical skills in their area of interest, and contribute meaningfully to the preservation and interpretation of the Lee-Fendall House.

These are unpaid internships, but college credit may be arranged.

Interested applicants should submit a resume and cover letter to hiring@leefendallhouse.org by April 30, 2026. Please specify which internship you are applying for within your application.
