Student Summer Internships in Museum and Curatorial Studies

The Lassonde Internship program enables ongoing partnerships between the Pierre Lassonde School of Fine Arts and selected Canadian arts institutions. Each partner institute will provide a meaningful and professional experience for a selected undergraduate student from the Museum and Curatorial Studies Minor program.

This 16-week paid internship (35 hours per week, May to August) is funded by the Pierre Lassonde School of Fine Arts.

To ensure that the internship is financially accessible to any student from the Museum and Curatorial Studies Minor program, the School will pay the cost of the intern's employment at the partner institution, as well as pay for the intern's transportation and housing subsidies.

There will be two Lassonde Student Summer Internships available each year.
