Three Paid Summer Fellowships – The Tenement Museum – March 7

The Tenement Museum will be hiring three (3) paid undergraduate or graduate students for specific projects for the summer 2018 semester.   Our Masters Fellowship program is designed to offer our fellows the opportunity to work on meaningful projects that provide them with real world learning experiences in the area of their focus.  Fellows will also receive a comprehensive overview of museum/nonprofit operations during their time with us.   Fellows will be mentored by museum professionals who will share their knowledge, skills and experience to help them get the most out of their time with us.

Our program lasts 10 weeks and our fellows are expected to commit to 4 days a week.  Our fellows are open to undergraduate and graduate students.  During the course of your fellowship you will participate in brown bag lunches, presentations from department heads and senior leadership, staff meetings and field trips.  At the end of your fellowship you’ll share what you’ve learned by conducting a short presentation to museum staff.

Fellows will receive an hourly rate of $13.00/hour, a 30% discount in our museum shop, 4 complimentary tickets for your friends or family and a Tenement Museum Id that allows access to NYC museums for free. 

The following opportunities are available.  Please submit your resume and cover letter via the link to our career portal.   Deadline to apply is April 1st.
