Overview

The curation section is responsible primarily for the collection of artifacts, stewardship of community and artifact donor relationships, and development of exhibitions. The museum closed to the public in October 2024, and during the forthcoming months/years of the museum’s closure, museum curators are working with outside design consultants on the renovation and reinterpretation of the museum’s permanent exhibitions. The largest of those projects is the redevelopment of what was in the past called the Story of North Carolina, a chronological exhibition that covers more than 16,000 years of the state’s history, from 14,000 BCE to the present. This exhibit will include stories and time periods that have not been interpreted at length in the museum’s previous permanent exhibition. The curation intern will work closely with one of the lead curators of the chronological exhibition to research stories to highlight in the exhibit and identify related potential exhibit content. Interns will gain experience learning the process of exhibition development, becoming familiar with exhibit research skills and identifying exhibit content.

Projects

The intern will assist with projects such as:
• Primary and secondary research on specific periods, events, and moments of North Carolina history
• Identification of potential exhibit content including images, audio, video/film, data, maps, historical quotes, interviews, oral histories, and more
• Optional participation in weekly exhibit team meetings

The intern must:
• Have excellent written and oral communication skills, organizational skills, and attention to detail
• Be proficient in historical research, including navigating primary and secondary sources
• Have demonstrated experience with navigating institutional archives
• Have experience or familiarity with public history, museum studies, archaeology, or a related field
• Be interested in learning about museum curation and exhibition development
• Be able to work well independently and collaborate as part of a team
• Be proficient in computer programs like Microsoft Word and Excel

Time Commitment

This is a 10-15 hour per week, 8–10-week unpaid internship that will be a hybrid, primarily off-site position, after a period of in-person orientation at the museum’s temporary office location in Raleigh. Hours are flexible, although attendance at regular weekly team meetings is encouraged.
