New York Transit Museum – Museum Archive Support Aide Internship:
Registrar’s Support Aide Internship (New York, New York, U.S.)

The mission of the New York Transit Museum is to: “Collect, exhibit,
interpret, and preserve the history, sociology, and technology of
public transportation systems in the New York metropolitan region and
conduct research and educational programs that make its extensive
collection accessible and meaningful to the broadest possible
audience.”
NYTM is one of only a few museums in the world dedicated to telling
the story of urban public transportation—from the people who
developed, operate, and ride it, to the city and region it has helped
shape. NYTM focuses on this human experience and the impact of public
transportation on the growth and development of the New York
metropolitan region. The Museum collects, preserves, and presents
materials relating to the region’s land-based public transportation,
past and present, focusing on the agencies of the Metropolitan
Transportation Authority and their predecessor companies.
