The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art
Summer Graduate Internship 2006
Florida State University
Sarasota, Florida
We are
pleased to announce the Summer Graduate Internships for 2006 at The John and
Mable Ringling Museum of Art located in Sarasota, Florida. This internship provides a high quality,
practical work experience for graduate students interested in a career in the
museum field. The Ringling Museum
complex is comprised of three museums on a 66-acre estate located on Sarasota
Bay and includes an internationally recognized art collection, the Ringling
mansion, Ca`d’Zan, and the Circus Museum/Tibbals Learning Center. The Historic Asolo Theater is also
located on the grounds. Over $50
million in new construction has begun for an expansion of the circus museum, a
visitor’s pavilion, new art galleries, education center and library, and
landscape improvements.
The
2006 internships will begin on June 5, 2006 and end on August 4, 2006. During this nine-week period a total
stipend of $3,600 will be paid in bi-weekly installments. The Museum will assist the interns in
obtaining housing, if requested.
The cost of housing and meals will be the responsibility of the
intern. Each intern will be
assigned to a specific area of museum operations based on their choice of an
internship indicated on his or her application. Approximately half the experience will
focus on a pre-determined project that will add value to the Museum, and be an
invaluable tool for a future career in the museum field. The remaining half will be spent
assisting in the normal operations of that area, including daily tasks.
Selected candidates will be notified by mail on February
27, 2006.
Students interested should complete
the application form, which can be downloaded from: www.ringling.org. Go to “Employment Opportunities,”
Internships at Ringling.
All applications must be
received by February 3, 2006 and mailed to:
